“Patience is waiting. Not passively waiting. That is laziness. But to keep going when the going is hard and slow - that is patience.”-Unknown
It definitely hard and slow, but I am learning. I ran across a blog the other day that taught me that I was being so selfish being sad that we still have such a long wait. They have waited over almost a year for a court date, that is right, a year. Their child has aged a year since they last saw them, that had to be outright torture. The good news is, they get to go get their child in a few weeks. I am truly happy for them! Again, patience is not my virtue, but I just learned a huge lesson.

Wow, what a long awaited blessing for that family! I think we all should be doing our best to wait graciosly- glorifying God all a long the way. Praying for you as you wait, and asking for prayers in return as we wait. God bless! - Summer

Reality checks really help when you are in the waiting mode. We waited 6 months for my son's court date and it was pure torture. I can't imagine a year!
ReplyDeleteWe are now waiting for our baby girl. We are just hoping the waiting for referral is the long wait and once we meet her it goes quickly.
We shall see!
