Guess who is on her way to go meet her new 22 month old son!?!? My dear friend Courtney! God works in amazing ways! Only God knew that as we sat together celebrating our Savior's birth with Hudson in my arms, that she would have a new son in her arms to celebrate His death and resurrection only 3 months later! This was a situation they never had even imagined...much like our Hudson! She heard about it on Sunday, talked with the social worker yesterday and as I type she is on a plane to go meet him. Please keep her covered in prayer with me. She needed to travel alone, so she will be meeting him alone and spending a few days bonding with him. Please pray for all of the paper work to speed through so she can be free to travel home with him by the end of the week. Pray for the Lord to work in miraculous ways in bonding their hearts together. Pray for her husband and children who are at home very anxiously awaiting their new son and brother. Pray for all their needs to be provided. And for them to be surrounded in safety and peace. God is AMAZING in all He does!!!! He works in ways that we can't ever imagine. Once we release our plans and dreams to Him, He is able to do immeasurably more than we could ever ask or imagine! Glory be unto His name!
Last night Courtney and I were laughing about how the tables have turned and now we know exactly how each other felt when I got the call for Hudson. Yesterday was a blur for her and I sat by the phone waiting to hear what was happening next. Now she understands why I ended up in Florida with long sleeve sweaters and pants...I wasn't thinking too clearly! :) And now I know how she was pouring her heart out in prayer for me all while I was preparing to travel. I will continue to sit on pins and needles until I hear from her next just like she did with me.
Court, I love you and I can't wait to see your new little dude! You are a wonderful mom and a blessing! I am praying, praying, praying for you and will continue to pray you through this week. Praise Jesus for your new little son and I can't wait to see the photos of him in your arms!
