TRANSLATIONS!

HOORAY! Wayne got the translations and sent them to our US lawyer! Now the ball is in the court of the social worker and our Thai lawyer. Now we wait and see if they respond.


Like we HAVEN'T been waiting???? :/


But God knows, God sees, and God cares.


We wait on Him,

"The Man With The Key Is Gone"....

"The man with the key is gone" is a phrase we often heard in Uganda, especially if someone had to sign something or you had to get some type of official paper. So, it has surfaced again, but this time in Thailand!! :) Ah, yes, delay has struck again! Our wonderful lawyer here in the U.S. has given Wayne two letters to get translated into Thai. So Wayne went to the place where we usually went, the YMCA, to get an official translation of the letters. One will go to our social worker in Bangkok and the other to our Thai attorney. However, when he arrived, the lady who does the translation work is on vacation for a month! So he has pursued other avenues to get this done. Hopefully and prayerfully, this week it will get accomplished!


In the meantime, my wonderful warrior husband, stands with our little son, awaiting the salvation of the Lord!! 


Hallelujah for what HE accomplishes when all else fails!

A BIT OF PROGRESS....

I received the letters from the attorney and have sent them to Wayne for translation. He should have them back to our attorney by the end of the week. She will then send them to the Thai attorney and our social worker. We continue to praise the Lord for what He is going to do and we stand and wait to see the Lord fight for our cause! (which is really His cause as well!!)


I talked to Wayne this morning and he has a tummy bug while Jedidiah wants to jump all over him and try and wrestle, like they usually do! I told Jedi that he needed to take care of his daddy and be nice to him just like daddy does for him when he is sick. He said "ok", so I will wait and see what happens in Wayne's next update! He did take him to the Night Safari in Chiang Mai over the weekend and got to do Jedi's favorite, which is a ride on the elephant!! He just loves elephants. He is brave enough now to feed the elephant some bananas, which is a big step for him! He also got to feed the giraffes, which is a lot of fun too. 


I guess when he comes to Texas, we might have to get an elephant, I mean, after all, people have all sorts of animals here, camels, lamas, strange looking cattle, etc.!! :) (Just joking, but we'll definitely check out the zoos!)


Thank you for your continued prayers and the gifts given!


Have a blessed day!

THANK YOU! THANK YOU!


Philippians 4:19

New Living Translation (NLT)
19 And this same God who takes care of me will supply all your needs from his glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ Jesus.



We are so thankful to the Lord and to those who want to join us in bringing our dear little son home! We are almost at the half-way mark to get what we need for the attorney fees. We have received $1,240!! (We need $3,000).


Our attorney is writing letters this week to our Thai attorney and to our social worker in Bangkok. If there is no response in a reasonable time, she has another plan to get the ball rolling!


We are trusting in the Lord to bring this all to a joyous conclusion. Please continue to pray. Thank you, again, and especially to my Home Team at New Hope Christian Church, for your contributions and also others who responded to the blog.


Blessings!
Bonnie Sue and Wayne
