Faith?

It's easy to have faith but how about when it's tested??  There are so many examples in the Bible of people choosing Faith even when their circumstances didn't line up b/c they knew God and TRUSTED Him beyond anything else.  Just think of Abraham taking Isaac up that mountain- what???  This week we were expecting to receive our fingerprint appointment and ready to stop the wait.  I got the much anticipated package and opened it to find a form - DENIED - what?  We had missed signing a document; we quickly signed and re-mailed it today.  I'm thinking seriously?  Another week of waiting?  My husband calmly looked at me and apologized and said isn't it crazy a weeks difference could determine what baby we get - Our baby is a week later than the one we were going to get.  Ah, I rest in the assurance that we are not in control - Praise God - and that He is truly working all things together for our good!
Hebrews 11:1  Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.

And to think God already had that special Ethiopian baby planned for your family before you missed the signature!
