"I don't have a birth certificate on file for a Kyler Laine Teele. You're going to have to bring all the paperwork in to the office before I can order one for you."
Our hearts sank. Those were not the words we wanted to hear on our answering machine. What in the world was going on? Just the day before, we had made a special trip to Portland to drop off the required forms for Kyler's birth certificate. We were hoping to get it as quickly as possible since he still needs a passport and visa for going to Papua New Guinea.
We discussed our problem. Had we left out some paperwork? Did it somehow get lost between offices? Would we have to fill out all the paperwork again (groan)?
God left us in suspense over the weekend. I love how He does that sometimes... how He gives you time to come back to truth and remember that He is in complete control.
Today, we received an email from the same lady who called. She said she mailed the birth certificate for Kyler yesterday!
God sees. He cares.
Just over 2 months left before we leave for Papua New Guinea. I'm so grateful for yet another reminder that God is with us on this journey!
