Call to prayer

I have a huge prayer request for anyone who reads my blog.  Many of you know my friend Meredith from her comments and her own blog Lawyerish, which is currently PW protected.  She and her husband are waiting to bring their baby girl, Amelia, home from Vietnam.  They  have run into roadblock after roadblock in this process and today they got more bad news.  I cannot go into more detail at the time because of the delicate nature of the situation, but please, please pray for Meredith and Joe.  Pray that they stay strong as they continue to wait.  Pray for them not to lose sight of their daughter.  Pray for Amelia, who is the one of the sweetest little things I've ever seen.  Pray for the governments who are making this process even more difficult than it already is.  I ask all of you who have blogs and read mine to link back to me so we can get as many people praying for this as possible.  Meredith, Joe and Amelia need for God to move mountains.

I will most definitely keep them in my thoughts and prayers. As we are considering international adoption ourselves, I had been following their adoption story on their blog before it became PW protected. Whatever the issue is, I will pray that it is resolved soon.

We will be praying for the Lord to move those mountains and trusting that he knows all the details and they are not a surprise to him in the least.
I am praying for sweet Amelia who is awaiting her forever family and for Joe and Meredith who long so much to hold her, kiss her and touch her ... seeing for themselves that she is finally theirs forever!

So I'm a few days behind, but I've put Meredith and Joe on my blog too asking for prayer! I so enjoyed reading Meredith's blog until it went PW. Please update us when you know more!
