Past the seeker as he prayed came the crippled and the beggar and the beaten. And seeing them...he cried, “Great God, how is it that a loving creator can see such things and yet do nothing about them?” God said, “I did do something. I made you.” ~Author Unknown

We're Headed to Ethiopia - Take 2

 
We got the call on Friday that the US Embassy has finished their investigation, and we are all clear to go.  Thank You Sweet Jesus!!!  What a wonderful gift!!! 
  
As you can imagine, it is all systems go.  We cannot wait to get our bundle of energy home.  I've been imagining him running around here for months.  It's a bit surreal to know that it is REALLY happening.
 
Thanks to all of you who have been praying for us.  We have felt your prayers and mountains have been moved.   I'm so grateful to have such a wonderful support group.

    I came across your blog from someone else's blog--so happy for you! Hey, you might want to come check out a new Christian adoption website www.wearegraftedin.com -- there is a room on the forum dedicated to Ethiopian adoptions. Come and join in and get the discussion rolling in there. Hope it becomes a place of mutual encouragement and helpfulness!
