Gods Time Is The Best Time



Never our timing always Gods. From the beginning we have said his will his way. We have trusted that he will lead us and we hope to hear correctly. For any doubters left here is one more amazing thing.
We have waited and waited for approval from immigration to approve us. Our dossier is ready to go to authentication as soon as we receive that approval letter. The faster we get that we can get authentication done and our dossier sent to China. And some of our documents expire at the end of August. And we don’t want to spend more money getting them a second time! (documents with notarizations are only good 6 months). (And without approval from immigration the adoption stops). We were getting for the weekend and Leigh leaving for a week to work at camp. If we did not have approval before Friday then we would have to wait till Leigh got back and knowing that work was busy it would probably be two weeks before we got to the bank to notarize it. Time is of the essence.Fridays mail came early and our approval was there. And it was just before Torsten left to go camping he called said we have it. Few minutes later we lost a chunk of kids and I found out I would get off work 2 hours early. Amazing in the last hour God is there to say I got this just trust. So we were able to get to the bank to notarize it and to fed ex the documents all before 4!!! Approval and notarized in one day! 
WA State Authentication department called Tuesday and said our documents look good and we will have them back first of next week. Once they come to us they have two more parts of authentication DC and China Embassy. Once authentication is done we send our dossier to China. Once the dossier goes to China we wait. The next phase is all dossier. That is the 3rd and final waiting piece. This piece will be our approval to travel, and our second approval of our daughter. (If you can't tell the adoption process you do the same thing over and over. And each time it cost money...) So sad that these kids wait for love and a family and some never get the chance because of money! We have victory and faith! We are seeing miracles. God has opened every door in less than 6 months we are ready for our dossier to go to China. God is moving fast!  
PLEASE PRAY that we raise the last $700 to pay for our dossier fees ($4760) we have the $900 for authentication!

Deuteronomy 28: 12

That is all for now thanks for reading and pray
