So, one more milestone reached! Now we are praying for a speedy delivery of our actual approval. We are also praying and trusting that my fingerprints will be accepted. The machine rejected my prints several times today, but the technician used the best ones and assured me that she knows "good prints" when she sees them. I have never had this problem before, and I have been fingerprinted several times in my life due to working with children in many different capacities. I really don't want this to slow us down in the race to get to our little girl. However, it is just one more opportunity to remember that I am not in control. The One who is in control is never late; He is always perfectly on time. He will unite us with our little precious on exactly the day that He has planned. So, I rest assured of this truth! But please fingerprints of mine, don't fail me now!
Fingerprints are such a mystery and such a reminder of the way that God has made each and every person to be unique. I stand amazed at our God, and I am confident that even the simplest detail of our fingerprints have been perfectly and wonderfully made!
"He seals up the hand of every man, that all men whom He made will know it." Job 37:7
