Submit(ted)



Submit. To give over or yield to the power or authority of another. Today we received an answer to prayer… we have learned that our paperwork has been submitted to court! Thank You, Jesus : )
Today, I was surprised to hear of our court submission. But, God wasn’t. Nothing surprises Him because He is the author of our timelines. The Ethiopian courts will close by the 2nd week of August and will remain closed for 6 weeks. By anyone’s standards, it would take a miracle for us to receive a court date prior to the court closure. We are preparing for an early fall court date- most likely after September. But (there’s always a ‘but’ you know)….we serve a Big and Mighty God!
Please join us in praying for our court date. Pray for all the people working on our case. May their time working be productive and efficient. That any obstacles, distractions and challenges be averted before they even realize it.
Today, we are firmly and confidently submitting our court date to God. He already knows the exact day and time in which we’ll meet our sweet little boy. God knows and has always known exactly what our ‘timeline’ will look like.
Our paperwork was submitted to the Ethiopian court last Friday and today we’re submitting our court date to God’s timing. Submit. To give over or yield to the power or authority of another. We’re yielding this one to God.
