On the Move Again

I just received a call that our home study update is complete.  With any luck, it will be in our hands Thursday and then off to the USCIS (United States Citizen & Immigration Services) center where they will update our orphan visa approval cable and send it to ETHIOPIA.  After this has been updated, we can complete our dossier and then have it sent to Ethiopia to patiently wait for a referral for Baby Boy Cooper.  He is getting closer....

“If it seems slow, wait patiently, for it will surely take place.  It will not be delayed.”  

As I found the waiting very frustrating today, a fellow adoptive Mom offered the following verse as encouragement. 

But these things I plan won't happen right away. Slowly, steadily, surely, the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled. If it seems slow, wait patiently, for it will surely take place. It will not be delayed.

Habakkuk 2:3 (NLT)

I hope you find this verse encouraging as well.  I now have it posted in my cubicle at work.  God is in control.
