The boys and I were at our monthly homeschool zoo classes on Nov 17 (Andy's birthday). During one of the breaks, I was listening to a conversation between 2 women that both had Asian children with them. They were speaking of when they traveled to China---they said there was even a dad all by himself picking up his child in China. Well, I listened---felt a nudge to introduce myself--no, no, that would be admitting I was listening to their private conversation. Besides Andy always told me when we were out and bout with the twins that everyone that had twins did not want to take to me!! So I am thinking not everyone that as a little China girl wants to talk with me... But the inner nudge kept at my heart. I kept trying to convince myself not to say a word... Holy Spirit?! and I am trying to ignore the HS...
Ok, I broke down and admitted I was listening in on the conversation. I think I asked about their stories (I hope I did), but I know I told them about mine...mmmm, seems a bit selfish on my part--all bout me... ugh.
Well, Michelle was just a delight to listen to. She had just come back home from China with her daughter in the last 6 weeks!! and the SAME agency as ours! and she dropped a doctor's name that had reviewed their file!!---could it be? that the doctor was within Andy's office??!! no way, so I asked did you mean Dr. P. S.? Yes, she did!! wow, a friend of ours helped them review the medical file...
So Michelle kindly gave me her cell and said call anytime with questions, help, advice, support and PRAYER. Did I mention that her husband is in ministry?!!
This meeting happened to be just 6 days before we would receive our referral!!
WOW----God is in the details... moreover, He reveals Himself to ME... wow... I now know it was the Holy Spirit speaking to my heart... Wow... this journey of adoption just blows me away.... God is big and He is good all the time. and His timing is perfect.
