The Journey of a Family Striving to Live Dangerously Surrendered!


"Surrendering means that we have come to the end of our independence from him, our reliance on self-sufficiency, and our insistence that we don’t need him. Surrender to God changes everything! Why add the word dangerous to surrender? Because we don’t surrender to a benevolent but impotent grandfatherly figure; we surrender to Almighty God —the Creator and Sustainer of the universe. C. S. Lewis’s character Aslan in the Chronicles of Narnia depicts God as a magnificent lion —good, but certainly not safe. Surrendering your life to God is the boldest and riskiest step you can take. Being dangerously surrendered to God allows you to know him in increasingly deeper ways and to participate fully in his will. " ~Kay Warren

A Last Minute Holiday...

Ok...so other countries aren't like ours. They can call a holiday the night before and close every governmental office. Israel's case was not heard because they did just that....called a Muslim holiday last minute. Our case worker hoped it would be heard tomorrow...which is in the middle of the night tonight our time.

The agony of this part of the wait is so tense and nerve wrecking, but we have friends that have had to endure four court dates before a yes was given. Deep breath....

Thank you for praying. Keep checking back and perhaps tomorrow you will see a great announcement with Joshua's smiling face.

Love to you!
Kurt and JoLynn
