Exhausted.
The following post was from yesterday. I couldn't get to Internet access so I am posting now:)
It has been a terrible, awful, no good day!
We got up early and drove 2 hours to our state capital to get our special POA certified since I will be traveling alone. When we finally arrived and walked 4 blocks to the correct location we were told “oh no! They forgot the seal!” Yep, our lovely county courthouse forgot to put their seal on the paper.
We drove 2 house back to our county courthouse to get the seal placed on our POA. After explaining what happened they wanted ME to pay for another seal. I think not! We had to get the manager involved and she managed to smooth things over. They fixed their error but didn’t feel the need to apologize for ruining my day and costing me $70 in gas! I left with my papers in hand, not very confident that what I had was correct.
We drove 2 hours back to our state capital just before closing and I walk out minutes later with a state certified copy of our POA. Praise the Lord!
I will overnight it to the courier tomorrow and Monday she will take it to the Houston Chinese Consulate. Praying all goes well and I will have it back in my hands within a week.
FUNDING UPDATE:
We received the cost of my inside China travel today! It was a little more than I expected... I had hoped since it was a party of 1 it would be a little less but the total was $3490.
That cost has been covered and LifeSong is sending our agency a check Monday morning. Thank you all for making this possible!
14 days left and $3000 left to complete our adoption!!
Can we just stop for a moment and PRAISE the good Lord above?!?!
We have received $7000 in donations in 5 days!
$3000 in 14 days seems very possible. Please continue to pray for the Lord’s provision.
It is my hope and my prayer that if the Lord is leading you to do something... no matter how impossible it may seem... trust Him and act in obedience to His calling!
