ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN

We heard from the consulate this morning and there is no update. They are awaiting opinion from London which will serve as a second opinion of sort. So, now that it is the weekend in England, we will await news next week.
So good is our God that our every step and breath is orchestrated to our good and His glory. Praise Him for this time of uncertainty and the work that it is working in us. Praise Him as well that He is able, more than able to accomplish that which concerns me (and you) today. He may not care for it in the way we wish, but it will always be for our best.

HASTE THEE ON

What a joy to know that all is planned, controlled and timed by God! Now, if we could just settle in that more... Last Thursday we submitted our response to NZ Immigration and now we are back to waiting. We should hear something soon - the clerk at the consulate told us she would let us know something this week - only a day and a half left! So, on with the work, on with the wait, on with the growth in God.

THE WAITING IS...

This week we have heard from our immigration helper (spelled - l a w y e r) who received official word from NZ immigration. There is one particular medication which is a concern due to its cost. We are working on the potential of a different medication which is of minimal expense and making sure our insurance will cover expenses. Once we have all this, and some more, on paper, we will submit that to Immigration NZ and see what the final answer is. We believe that seeing the expenses will be covered by outside insurance and not the NZ national health system, everything should work out.

In the meantime, we add these things to the list of ongoing projects to stay on top of. But, it is great to know that in the waiting, our God is at work. And, while all this is wearying to the body and mind, our God never slumbers nor sleeps and He is always concerned for our every need. Beyond that, we take great comfort in knowing that His omnipotent hand has planned all this and is able to carry us through it.
