Education

Education is so crucial.  Without it how are we supposed to know how to take care of ourselves and others.  Actually God used a lot of the Old Testament educating us on life.  The law of Moses  has taught us how to take care of our health, spirit and emotions.  Education and learning are so important to live our lives.  Now imagine if we stopping schooling at 6th grade and never went again.  Who would the doctors be, or the lawyers, or the school teachers?  Education allows us to be used where God has us in the Body of Christ.

Imagine this judges in India are not required to continue their education once they have graduated college and are in their position.  Do you see the significance in this?  Well we heard from our rep last week that he discovered through his visits with our lawyer, CARA and the Ripa that the Judge who is handling our case didn't even get past the second sentence of our affidavit because he found out we have four children and my husband is an engineer.  Apparently he thought my husband made to much to be just an engineer and that there had to be something shady going on.  CARA actually went down and sat with him to help him understand what Indian law was on family sizes and adoption.  They don't have a limit.  

So where are we now... Waiting again on the preparation of a one page explanation of motivation of adoption of Haddie.  Our hopes are that the lawyer can get the judge to read the whole page and hear our plea.  When I heard this from our rep my heart sank.  But he feels there is still hope and we are not going to give up.  God is bigger then all of this and will prevail with His will whatever it be.

The rainbow was His reminder and promise to Noah.  He has been showing us a lot of these lately so we will continue to hold hope that our daughter will be coming home with us in this coming year.
