Psalm 27:14--
Wait on the LORD: be of good courage,
and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. (KJV)*
Wait on the LORD: be of good courage,
and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. (KJV)*
And now we wait. There have been "waits" during this process....getting on the list, getting updated waitlist numbers, getting a referral, getting a court date. All of these could happen at any time in the future, and when they did, we rejoiced.
In THIS situation, the "event" has already happened. Now we're waiting to see the outcome. It's past tense now.
It's not uncommon to wait 1, 2, or even several days to find out the outcome. I suppose the court doesn't decide right there in front of the orphanage director. Once they decide, they issue a court decree which is delivered to the orphanage in a few days. If ours is there, we've passed. If it's not in the bunch, we wait.
So that's what we're doing. But we're still praying, pretty much constantly. Please continue to pray!
*Thanks to my high school friend Andrew for giving us the encouraging verse!

Is there anything harder than waiting? Nope. At least when you know the facts you can deal with them. We'll continue praying with you guys.
