Since our last update there has been a few changes. Originally we were supposed to be traveling sometime in April to pick up our sons. However due to a few delays with "Vesta" (the adoption agency in Bulgaria), this will not happen until the first week of May. BUT the great news is we have our travel dates!! Which means we will be flying out the first of May to bring our boys Home!! This is date is scheduled, ticketed, and ready to go! So if all goes as planned our boys will be home the second week of May! God is good!
Now I have to say that at first, I was a little saddened about another delay, but God is His Grace has perfect timing!! The neatest part about this date is that it is the last day of school for my girls! Meaning, we will not have to deal with homeschooling the girls after the boys arrival. So the blessing of this is that home school will be done for this session and we can simply focus on bonding the family! Maybe God's timing is not 'soon enough' for me...BUT His timing is ALOT better than mine!! God is Good!
Habakkuk 2:3, "But these things I plan wont happen right away. Slowly, steadily, surley, the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled. It seems slow, wait, patiently, for it will surley take place. It will not be delayed."
On another note, Darryl, Tessa, Ayva and I are anxiously awaiting the arrival of our sons! The room is prepared and ready to go! Closets and dressers are filled to the brink! We are ready and are but moments away from making the trip to 'snatch up' our boys from the orphanage. At this moment our two sons are blissfully unaware that in a matter of weeks they will be swooped away from that place and brought to a far, far better place then where they are now! Oh what a thrill!!!
You see, Christ to wants to swoop you away and take you to a far, far, far better place than where we are now! He is preparing a wonderful place for those who love Him. The time is at hand, He is coming and but moments away from snatching up all those who Love Him!
"For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain will be caught-up (RAPTURED) together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words." 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18.
As a thief comes in the middle of the night, Christ to will abduct us unexpectedly! And Oh what a thrill! To be abducted, not by a stranger, but by the one who love us so much that he gave his life for us!
Our boys may be blissfully unaware of our arrival, but like our Heavenly Father, we are excited, anxious, and full of love for our boys! Whom we can't wait to 'snatch up' and bring to a place we have prepared for them!! And it's all in the timing of the Most High God!
"... "Surely I am coming soon.".. Come, Lord Jesus, Come!" Revelations 22:20
Are you ready for his arrival??
Thank you all again for continuing to embark on this journey with us. Please remember to keep our family in your prayers. Please pray for safe travels, as well as, our sons, the girls, and us as we become a new family.
