Waiting on God

Waiting on God. Waiting on people.....is frustrating. It is especially frustrating when I am positive that I heard from the Lord. When I say I "heard" from the Lord. I got an impression...prayed about it..checked it with the Word of God...and waited for the confirmation..and it was yes, yes, and yes. As many of you the waiting period follows. In my experience that waiting period escorts a slew of situations that contradict the word. Kind of like Joseph. He received a dream and its revelation but yet that vision was not realized for fifteen years. I've experienced the "Joseph" syndrome many times in my life as well.

For example, finding my husband was a series of faith builder moments. I received a Word ..the confirmation, and yet I didn't find and marry him until I was 44. He was worth the waitl

Sooooo I said all that to say I am waiting for my girls. There is a bit of a set back because of the current situation and that some step dad is interested in them....This is not good...but God keeps reminding me to trust Him. Its tough. It would be easier to toss in the towell and recognize there are thousands of other girls ...but GOD! I know I must not look by sight but by the spirit. God give me that wisdom..and understanding .

Thanks Lord for your faithfulness.
Thank you for my new family
Thank you for speaking to me and allowing me to step out on you

Well there are two girls that are foster kids of my freinds'. They have never wanted to adopt...we do. these girls are great. No they do not come without a few issues..but trust me they are minimal and fairly normal especially due to the trauma they have had to face. We have petitioned to adopt them. I love them very much.

but I have trouble waiting. I know that God has spoken to me about these girls...and everything is flowing well..but I'm getting a little tired of the story and want the next chapter to start. I mean this one is beginning to feel like a coma.

if anyone is reading this please say a prayer for us because I want our "family" to start ...Is that too much to ask?...

They got babtized Sunday...soo precious. A very special moment.

Losing weight. Ugh! this is a topic which totally dicourages me. I feel like a failure. I mean I try to excersize. I watch my portions...but yet it seems like the story ends the same a 2 steps forward four steps back. ...If I could keep it up..I could  move to the next level. but it isn't, I don't ...thats that..or should I say thats fat. ...I won't drag this horse thru the mud any more..but I really want to look better and feel better.
