A lot of people read about L C.G. right here. A handful of folks emailed me asking for more information. Some wanted to help. Some really were considering if they could bring him home. But, there was one thread of messages among the others that stood out, one that I kept coming back to you because she kept coming back to it as well.
I didn’t know her before that thread started. We have a mutual friend. The friend shared my post on Facebook, and her husband actually happened to see it and click on it with no intention of anything beyond reading a story. But, reading the story became entering in. And, he shared it with his wife who also entered in and found herself thinking about him long after she walked away from the screen. Reading the story led to late night conversations as a couple and lots and lots of prayer. Then, somehow, the thread that was full of questions took a turn.
The joy in my heart is making me want to burst and the effort to restrain my heart from just taking off is enormous! I want to follow the right steps. I just got a message from my husband. “I’m amused at the Lord.” “Sweet, sweet, boy”.
She had already been feeling that tug of yes. And, her husband sensed that tug too…even before she did.
I can’t tell you much more than that, friends. But, this I can say: Somewhere in China right now on someone’s desk in some office is a file folder with paperwork about and old pictures of this sweet, sweet boy stamped in red ink with the word MATCHED…however that is said in Chinese.
I can’t wait to see him in October and tell him that he’s got a family that’s way more than “ordinary” who is already working very hard to bring him home as fast as they possibly can.
