Villagers, It Is Time

There is a family that needs it's village to grow rapidly. Today.
Joshua's family is in a very desperate situation right now, and I'm asking Elisha's village to step forward and act.

The ultra-condensed summary is this:
The family is currently overseas and has essentially completed the adoption to bring Joshua home.
However, his required medical testing (required to complete adoption and head home) showed a lung issue. Seeing this, the doctor would not approve letting him fly home (to be rechecked and treated in the U.S.)
The family has now been running ragged, trying to find out whether he indeed has the issue or not (he acts healthy, and it could very possibly be scarring from a previous bout of illness) but second opinions are not frowned upon where he is from. Basically, the first doctor's diagnosis is the one that they have to follow. But... he doesn't seem ill, so can't actually get anyone to treat him.
The family is STUCK in the country, unable to treat him, unable to travel home, unable to get a different diagnosis... while the rest of their family is back in the States.
As if this entire situation isn't enough stress to deal with in a lifetime, they are now also dealing with the death of a very close relative back at home.

Basically, the family is stuck in limbo right now on the other side of the world. Money is gone, stress is at an all-time high, and this is all just a very scary helpless place to be emotionally.

The family needs it's village to grow now, so that they know they are not alone.

Please support them in any way you can. Let's do our part in being the village that brings Joshua home.

Right now, the song based off of Psalm 98 blares loud in my mind. I think it is a great reminder of that HE can take charge of this situation, as long as we remember to do our part first.

SHOUT TO THE LORD ALL THE EARTH LET US SING
POWER AND MAJESTY, PRAISE TO THE KING
MOUNTAINS BOW DOWN AND THE SEAS WILL ROAR AT THE SOUND OF YOUR NAME
I SING FOR JOY AT THE WORKS OF YOUR HANDS
FOREVER I'LL LOVE YOU FOREVER I'LL STAND
NOTHING COMPARES TO THE PROMISE I HAVE IN YOU


Warner family, we are shouting God's name for you. Across the earth, He can do great things. Nothing compares to the promise you have in Him.
