Knocking on the Gates of Heaven

We are certainly pounding on the gates of heaven this weekend as we confront yet another snag in our adoption process. How can it be? We are so close...

On Tuesday, we will find out for sure if we have the go-ahead to travel on the 15th... we are tentatively scheduled for a court date on the 19th but Lily's papers are hung up somewhere between Moscow and St. Petersburg. No papers.... no court date. If we miss this court date, then the judge, who apparently has a full calendar until the end of month, is going on vacation for the entire month of August. If this happens, then we will be delayed until September.

If Lily comes back to St. Petersburg from camp, she cannot go back to her previous facility but will be transferred to another one. This could actually generate more paperwork, new personnel, etc.

I am trying to remain calm... trying to focus on trusting God. This process is really out of our hands...

Please pray. Luke 18:1-3... persistence... patience... perseverance...
