Tonight I am feeling a little sad. A team is leaving for Haiti on Saturday. While this is GREAT and hopefully we'll get more adorable pics of Bobby to keep us going, I had really believed that Bobby wouldn't be in Jeremie for the next group. I believed that he would be on his way home and would be in Port Au Prince with Dr. Bernard. We have gotten word that Bobby's birth certificate has been created. It is in Jeremie. Now someone in PAP has to make an extract (another form I think). Dr. Bernard then has to verify that the forms are legit and Bobby can move. This process is so amazingly slow. I know God has this whole thing in his hands. I know that, but tonight I'm still sad.
Please continue to pray for our sweet boy. Pray that he's fed, loved, safe, and that he gets moved just as soon as God wills it.
Oh and did I mention that the night I last posted- about Job and God's conversation- "where were you when I created the universe?". Yeah, that night as we read our "Read through the Bible in a Year" (which we are VERY behind on) guess what the passage was about???? Yep, you guessed it, the very same story.
Job 38- here is an excerpt:
2 “Who is this that obscures my plans
with words without knowledge?
3 Brace yourself like a man;
I will question you,
and you shall answer me.
4 “Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?
Tell me, if you understand.
5 Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know!
Who stretched a measuring line across it?
6 On what were its footings set,
or who laid its cornerstone—
7 while the morning stars sang together
and all the angels[a] shouted for joy?
8 “Who shut up the sea behind doors
when it burst forth from the womb,
9 when I made the clouds its garment
and wrapped it in thick darkness,
10 when I fixed limits for it
and set its doors and bars in place,
11 when I said, ‘This far you may come and no farther;
here is where your proud waves halt’?
12 “Have you ever given orders to the morning,
or shown the dawn its place,
13 that it might take the earth by the edges
and shake the wicked out of it?
14 The earth takes shape like clay under a seal;
its features stand out like those of a garment.
15 The wicked are denied their light,
and their upraised arm is broken.
16 “Have you journeyed to the springs of the sea
or walked in the recesses of the deep?
17 Have the gates of death been shown to you?
Have you seen the gates of the deepest darkness?
18 Have you comprehended the vast expanses of the earth?
Tell me, if you know all this.
Yes, I think that pretty much sums it up. God has this one. I just needed a little reminder and now I have it. Thanks God!
