I really wish I had some spectacular news to tell everyone...I don't. There haven't been any referrals in a few weeks. Ethiopian courts are shutting down about now (or soon) for rainy season. Referrals can still come in but not much gets processed until they're fully back open again in about two months or so. We'll have to see how many referrals actually come in during this time.
Regardless, we are 'all in.' There's no backing out, slowing down, hesitating for us. We're in this thing and so ready for it all. We're committed.
I found this quote today and it's really made me think...maybe it will make you do the same.
German philosopher, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832)
"Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative and creation, there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. Whatever you do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. Begin it now."
