Court date!!!!

Psalm 18:30-32 - As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is flawless. He is a shield for all who take refuge in him.  For who is God besides the LORD?  And who is the Rock except our God? It is God who arms me with strength and makes my way perfect.  

In the parking lot of TJ Maxx, I received information that would change our lives...a court date!!!  We have been praying & waiting soooo long for this.  It was one of those moments when our world stopped...I gave the kids some snacks in the back seat, called my hubby, & remained in AWE of our GREAT God...all in the driver's seat of our minivan :) I cannot possibly express the emotions surrounding this!   

Now we've been told that you usually have a month's notice before your court date. Sometimes 2 weeks. Well, how about 11 days!!!  We have a June 10th court date!!!  Not even kidding!  We have been praying for God's perfect timing...this is it :)  In the midst of the chaos of life & ministry, He says go & that he'll cover it all.  We are cutting short a vacation with my parents & are getting on a plane at 6am on June 7th...the date of our 10 year wedding anniversary!!! Seriously, Jesus,...how cool are you?!?!?  I mean it's already amazing & special, but we serve a God who loves details. He knew how precious this would be to me & it doesn't get more special than that (still smiling).  I love it when something happens, & you know God ordained it special just for you :) Such a privilege to serve a God that continues to blow me away with a love I don't deserve!  

So here's what we know...

1.  We will meet our son on June 8th...overwhelmingly amazing on so many levels & that's an understatement :)

2.  We are leaving June 7th & will return on June 16th (father's day...again with the timing...how cool?!?!?)

3.  Our court date is June 10th

Typically, after your court date you return in about 2 months, so we will most likely have him home in August-September!

4.  God is always good & always in control no matter what...NO MATTER WHAT :)

So for now, our flight is booked, but we are still nailing down a place to stay. Jesus keeps reminding me of His perfection.  He is perfect peace (Isaiah 26:3)...His way is perfect (Psalm 18:30) Thankful for a perfect God :). May we relentlessly pursue Him as we relentlessly pursue our son!
