Day 22: Josiah for Quiambao Family… Forty to Forever…

Today at Forty to Forever, it is for the Quiambao’s second precious boy, Josiah. They arrived in country to find out that he is currently ill and needs to be in hospital. Please be praying for him and his recovery. The Quiambao family is expected to cover the expenses for his medicine and they travel very far to visit him everyday (it costs US$100 to go visit him). They do have a very tight budget which will be very stretched but this extra need. Please help them meet this need. Thanks.
Today’s Lent devotion is about allowing yourself to fail… why? you ask. Well, go over and have a read and you will understand… syc

Josiah 2The Quiambao family is in travelling in country now meeting their children!  They are adopting two adorable boys, Tobias and Josiah.  Here is part two of their amazing story:
“As our home study began, we asked to be approved for two children. We did not know what God was going to do, but we knew we had the room and the means to care for another child. We certainly have the love! About 1/2 way through our paperwork, we were told about another child in our Tobi’s orphanage who was in the process to be cleared for adoption. We were working hard to get our paperwork into Tobi’s country before the holiday. We left the timing in God’s hands. We would not slow down on our end what we had control of, but that if God had him ready…

Today at Forty to Forever we are rallying around the Quiambao family who is already in country to pick up their 2 precious boys and one of them will share the same name as my little boy… they are there to bring home Tobias Asher 😉 But their other little guy is ill and they are now expected to visit him in a far away hospital and pay his medical expenses which were not totally unexpected but it will certainly stretch an already tight budget… please help them.

“We knew as soon as we saw a baby boy known as Fletcher on Reece’s Rainbow that he belonged in our family. I cannot explain it, I had looked at and loved so many little ones as we’ve prayed over the years. This was different, it was like looking at a picture of my child. I excitedly showed the newly listed page to my husband to scroll through, telling him that I thought our baby was on there but not pointing out Fletcher in particular. I wanted him to be fully convinced without my swaying.
As he scrolled through the many sweet faces, he…

drake 1Meet Drake!  His specific diagnosis is Freeman Sholden – syndrome a form of arthrogryposis which affects the joints, but is non progressive. Todd and Melissa saw Lance and were instantly in love and completely committed to bringing him home – no matter how hard they may have to fight to get him.

So many precious children are listed on Reece’s Rainbow that they felt they would want to adopt another child “some day”, but none of those beautiful lives were called to them…other families scooped some of them up and others they didn’t qualify for and they resolved to focus on Lance for now. Until Drake. Drake got an updated picture and video and Melissa was absolutely astounded that this was the same little boy. She showed Todd just to marvel at the miracle and then tried to move on…
