Trying...

I am trying to remain hopeful, faithful, and somewhat pleasant!! My friend, J, called PGN again today and found out that we haven't been resubmitted to PGN. My first thoughts were anger, frustration, and wow, I guess I am not even surprised. PGN hasn't been good to us so far! I posted on my yahoo group for support and one girl informed me that the PGN computer systems are currently backed up. Okay, now I can breathe a little better. I am at least no longer worrying that my paperwork is all lost forever in a black hole. I am at least a little hopeful that after the New Year my case will be picked up by a reviewer and put back into the computer system. I feel better knowing that my lawyer probably did submit our case when he said he did. This process tends to make you think the worst! I need to remember this verse...

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus”
~ Philippians 4:6-7

Great verse! I have a feeling everything will be alright. PGN hasn't been real nice to us, but we've put in our time and now it's time to get these little girls home!! :) I'm praying for you...

XOXO,
Joanna

We sang the song " God will make a way" at church this morning. It brought tears to my eyes. It is so true, he will make a way in his PERFECT time. You are in our prayers.

I feel your pain! When you don't seen any movement in your case it's just maddening, isn't it? Know that I am praying for you and Gillian. That your case is already submitted and you will have a quick out!

Oh, this so stinks! It looks like we are caught up in the same situation with PGN resubmits.

OK, I just read the verse again that you posted. I need to stay in that frame of mind and trust the Lord.

When I pray for us, I will pray the same for you. We're sisters in Christ! Pretty cool!
