We just received today what in the natural appears to be very bad news. My mom talked to Senator Isakson's staff who explained that the Texas Processing Center has decided after two weeks with our fingerprints that they do not know how to process them. They are now talking to Washington, DC to see who does know how to do this. At that point they will then FedEx our prints yet again. Let me be honest. I sobbed. Poor Nadeem. He was my rock and my tissue distributor. We have a choice every day-trust God or sink into defeat.
"He will have no fear of bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord. His heart is secure. He will have no fear." -Psalm 112:7, 8a
This news is no surprise to God. He already knew this was coming. What has He recently given us as signs of hope? First, our package arrived early yesterday. We have plenty of supplies now. Next, the senators and news reporter from Fox 5 are continuing to help us. Someone in Washington surely has the ability to process these prints. God gave my mom a dream a few nights ago in which He appeared to her and said that the right person wasn't here yet but that He was raising up the right person to help us. Maybe in Washington? We have an enormous amount of people lifting us up in prayer daily. The Fox 5 reporter would like to try to interview Nadeem and me while we're still in Bangladesh for the news which means that more could hear our story. Most importantly, if we never had any of these signs of hope, we have the Word of God that does not fail. Here is a compilation of various Psalms.
"Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in You. In God (I will praise His Word), In God I have put my trust; I will not fear. What can flesh do to me? God is for me. My heart is steadfast; O God, my heart is steadfast. For You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You. I will praise You O Lord with my whole heart. I will tell of all of Your marvelous works. I will be glad and rejoice in You. I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High. You are my help and my deliverer. You are my hope, O Lord God. You shall surround me with songs of deliverance."

I'm praying for God to send you an advocate to stand for you where you cannot stand. I know He will do that.
Glad to reconnect with you--even under these circumstances. God is good! What a beautiful little girl.
