Get Wrapped up in Him not It!
Okay, so honestly I have been lacking in my quiet time. I am definitely praying and talking with God constantly, but I have not set aside special time to just be with him lately. I miss it in more ways then one. Today I picked up a devotional book I have that I have not been in for a while and I noticed the day I left off on happened to be Peyton's birthday. I sat and read it, and it was great! I remember the day I read it last and how I used it to teach my children. It is so useful to us all... I wanted to share it:
This is from Jesus Calling by Sarah Young
(read this as though God was talking to you)
"Let me prepare you for the day that stretches out before you. I know exactly what this day will contain, whereas you have only vague ideas about it. You would like to see a map, showing all the twists and turns of your journey. You'd feel more prepared if you could somehow visualize what is on the road ahead. However, there is a better way to be prepared for whatever you will encounter today: Spend quality time with Me."
"I will not show you what is on the road ahead, but I will thoroughly equip you for the journey. My living Presence is your Companion each step of the way. Stay in continual communication with Me, whispering My Name whenever you need to redirect your thoughts. Thus, you can walk through this day with your focus on Me. My abiding Presence is the best road map available."

Rays of Hope!
Okay we have some hope and a plan!
After researching the employee handbook, Erick found out that the ppl like the CEO of the company and such can overwrite policies. He can take the request for the needed information to them and see if they will approve giving us what we need. However, everyone involved in these positions are currently on Spring Break this week. So, we are going to pray up from now till Monday when Erick will bring the request for the letter to them and see what happens. So that is one ray of hope! Pray for this and for God to move in the hearts of those he needs to for his will to be done! Pray for favor for Erick at his job and for the enemy's schemes to be defeated.
Also, after talking with my country team helper for a bit, he says that we can always just submit whatever info we can get and see what happens. So we can just submit everything when it is time and pray, pray, pray! They might not care and overlook it completely. Another ray of hope!
Thirdly, after posting to the adoption community, I have heard from another family who has adopted twice from this country and they could not get the needed info either, but they were still able to adopt each time! So just like mentioned above, the country may overlook it; it may not even be an issue. A great ray of hope!
So, as of now we still plan to move fwd on our mission to rescue our son Peyton. We are not convinced he is not ours. We still believe God has called us to redeem him! Please keep praying for us and him. The enemy is trying many things to thwart our plans.
Thanks for the prayers and support and kind encouraging words we have been getting.
