Answered Prayer

In 1 Samuel 1 Hannah prayed year after year for the blessing of a child.  She didn't know if or when God would answer her prayer, but one day her waiting was over.  My sister can relate.  After 2 1/2 years she and her husband have finally received the call they have been waiting for: they have a son!  He is nine months old, and he is waiting for them in Ethiopia.  If all goes well, they will be able to go to court in Ethiopia in a few months, and then return a few weeks later to get their precious boy.  Are we all nervous about the next few months?  Of course, but the Lord has always been in charge, from the moment he burned it in my sister's heart to adopt a child from overseas.  Can you imagine waiting 2 1/2 years for anything?  Join me praising the Lord for this incredible miracle, and know that whatever you are waiting for, if it is God's plan, it isn't over until God says it's over!
