Pre-trial Tuesday

The pretrial for the termination of Maggie's birth mother's rights is scheduled for tomorrow (Tues) morning @ 9:30am. We covet your prayers for all those involved in tomorrow's hearing: Maggie's attorney, CPS caseworker, her CASA advocate, our agency caseworker, and most importantly, the judge. We are praying for the judge sees the facts clearly, rules wisely and truly has Maggie's best interest at heart.

We are claiming:

"Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be the glory." Ephesians 3:20-21

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God." Philippians 4:6

"Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full." John 16:24

"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." Hebrews 11:1

"The peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:7

"Let the morning bring me word of Your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in You. Show me the way I should go, for to You I lift up my soul." Psalms 143:8

We will be sure to update the blog as soon as we know anything tomorrow. Thanks for your love, friendship and prayers as you travel on this journey with us.

Much love,

It's 10:00ish and I am thinking and praying for you guys right now. I know how court works, and it doesn't run "on schedule". Just wanted to let you know that I am praying for your peace while you wait to hear. I am praying for the judge's ears to be open and the lawyers, CASA and CPS to speak clearly and with purpose as they hold up the rights and the interest of your sweet Maggie. God's hand is on you and is on this situation fully.
