His Will

Well, we are doing everything we can, every day, to try to get back home to China as soon as we can. We drive into town to check email, to see if documents have arrived in our inbox from our foreign affairs man in China. We have been filling out visa applications and talking to the airlines. But at the end of the day, the only thing we can do is the only thing that I think is really having any effect: we pray. And the effect is, we feel calm, and a spirit of peace has taken over and is now reigning in our hearts. For the longest time, we were really angry at our foreign affairs man for waiting so long to get the process started on our documents in the first place. We have certainly told him that before. But the anger is gone. And if it is gone, there is only One I can think of who could have taken it away. I am really homesick. But I am willing to just be here for now until it is His will to take me back.
