1st Court Date!!!

Whoo Hoooo!!!  Last Thursday we received word that our 1st court date (in which we do not attend) will be on Tuesday, April 15th!!  What. a. relief.  Those 4.5 weeks of waiting to hear was seriously BRUTAL.

I have been so completely checked out these last 3-4 months.  I feel so badly for my family and my mom (because she works with me!), but it's truly something I have not been able to shake away from.  My every waking thought is about this adoption.  This worry, fear, anxiety, and teetering hope is just shaking me to my core.  These are things I've never really experienced -- and it's been such a challenge to let go of everything and "let God be God".

Today is Palm Sunday and the sermon was on HOPE.  It was perfect timing for me to be reminded to give back to Christ, those things which He's already taken for me on the cross: fear, anxiety, micro-managing tendencies…

So between now and tomorrow night (since by the time I awake on Tuesday, the court hearing will have been done already) I will definitely be praying over this court hearing!! -- but I will also be praying for the strength to "Be Still".
