Another delay....will it end?

With heavy hearts I write this...after rejoicing in the news that our medical was cleared and Abraham's case was finally being submitted to embassy on Dec 7th..we received this news instead on Dec 7th..while we were waiting to hear good news we get sad news: "intake did not happen as medicals were not yet cleared because CDC needed to be contacted for review regarding chicken pox"

We were devastated as Abraham's chicken pox was already gone and other children who had chicken pox also at the same time have already cleared and gone home!

I sat and cried.....what else could I do. I KNOW God is sovereign....but honestly with so many delays and expectations and the let downs, excitement then sadness...I just needed to cry. I know people mean well when they tell me that God's timing is best, but honestly right now that doesn't help me.  Just let me cry for now and wait to hear good news.

Wish this was a better post, but this is reality right now and where we are at.  Please pray that we are submitted Dec 14th.  There is NO CHANCE he will be home for Christmas afte rall...such a disappointment...wanted him here so bad for all the beautiful festivities going on etc...this let down is hard.

For now I am looking to my Father and asking why, and please move us forward..I guess it's OK to ask "how long Oh Lord"  But I also remember the words of the psalmist in Psalm 4:1 "Answer me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have given me relief when I was in distress. Be gracious to me and hear my prayer!"

Thank you for praying and thank you for letting me cry for now...for I know in time, He will turn my mourning into dancing...I will wait..for I know He is good.

I love you Abraham..someday when you read this you will know how hard the wait was for me too. I know it's hard for you as well as you watch your friends leaving the compound, but you still remain there..we are coming my sweet son. We are coming....
