Childlike faith!
My Sister and her family are planning on coming this coming week to visit us and like everyone else who has had to get their passports, they have had to wait, wait, & wait, no matter how early you send in your paperwork. Well, it is down to the last few days before they come and still no passports. I share the following with you to help us in our relationship with our Heavenly Father not to glorify our child for many have been praying!

Laura was busy taking care of something and Bryan came in to where she was and said, “Mommy, we need to pray for Uncle Frank and Aunt Doreen, right now.” (about the time the passport offices would be opening on Friday, 4 days before they are to fly on Tuesday; we are in Romania and offices in PA and Bryan has no idea about the differences in the time zones or when the offices open) Laura said, “You’re right Bryan, you pray first and then I’ll pray.” Then Bryan proceeded with the following, “thank you Jesus for Uncle Frank & Aunt Doreens passports, thank you for Uncle Frank & Aunt Doreens tickets, and amen!” No “OH dear God, thou knowest, the situation....” you know, like we adults tend to pray, sometimes with words taht we don't even use in normal vocabulary. Help! We are God’s children, aren’t we? We can talk to Him like He is our best friend...for He is our best friend. God wants us to come to Him with that simple child-like faith. The coolest thing was that later that day, my sister emailed us telling us that they got word that the tickets would be fed-exed, the next day. You can say it’s fate or coincidence, and you might be right, or you might not. I tend to believe that God moves the hearts of men and women and gets His will accomplished because prayer changes things and what a lesson to learn on how we are approach our heavenly Father, with simple child-like faith.
