The Lord found us our boy!

As you may know, we have been in the process of adopting 3 kids. 2 little girls, Zakeya & Dibora who passed court on Jan 21st. and Godeza, who did not pass court, in fact his Dad came and took him home.

We immediately asked Sue to put us on the waiting list for another infant boy. But God has His own plans. All we have to do is listen and when we hear His voice, we need to drop all of our own plans and agendas and embrace what He wants.

"I know the plans I have for you says the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future."

So after much wrestling with the Lord, :) we have laid our own plans down and we have joyfully decided to adopt Gezaw from the Waiting Boys list. He is 7 years old, has a sweet and gentle smile. In fact he is smiling in every picture. Even on his medicals, the Dr. noted that when he was there getting his exam, he was smiling.

Sue says he is paper ready and will be submitted to court next week. Praise God from whom all blessings flow!
