Brush With International Celebrities (Nov. 9, 2010)

This afternoon we went to play in the pool here at the hotel. While we were there we ran into a bunch of guys hanging out and drinking at the pool. Come to find out these guys are the band Air Supply and they are here on tour. We got our pictures made with them and I was able to share just a little about Mei. They invited us to be their guests at their concert tomorrow night. We are on the guest list and have back stage access. They wanted us to stick around after the concert.

We also ran into the basketball coach for the Qatar National Basketball Team. He is actually from Missouri and he came up to talk to us when he saw us with Mei. He has some friends back home who just adopted too and we talked for a little while.

We have been saying we want to share Mei’s Story for Abba’s Glory whenever and however we had the chance. I am praying that if we go to the concert tomorrow night the guys will ask me about the adoption process and I will be able to share with them about how the Lord has done so many amazing things. Actually … I had my chance to do this tonight when one of the lead singers asked me if it has been a long process. I hate I did not take that as my chance to dive in to proclaim the Lord’s Amazing Faithfulness and Sovereignty.

Lord, give me another chance to share Mei’s Story for Your Glory! Forgive me for letting a great opportunity slip through my hands. Give me the strength and boldness to not let another chance slip through my hands. May I learn to be a good steward of the amazing story you have let us be a part of.
