Praying
Posted by kathy on January 6th, 2010. Filed under: Blessings, Friends.Update: I just got a phone call that the judge said that the child is absolutely not to go back with her birth parents right now. He will reconsider the case after the criminal charges go to trial and if and only if the mother goes to and completes rehab. Praise Jesus! Baby E is safe for now!!
Some precious friends of mine (we’ll just call them R & K), are fostering to adopt a precious child. At 3 months old this child was critically injured and suffered several skull fractures at the hands of her birth parents. The short of the story is that both parents were so high that neither can remember what happened to little E. R and K have custody of baby E since March of 09. And let me tell you, she is precious! Since March, they have seen her cut her first teeth and take her first steps…and have fallen madly in love with this child.
Today, these friends have a very important court date to decide where this child will be placed. My heart is burdened and I am praying for God’s will for the well being of little “E”. I just want little E to be placed in the safest hands possible.
If you’re reading this today, would you pray with me? Please pray first and foremost for Baby E’s safety and well-being. Please also pray for the foster parents, the birth parents, the judge, and numerous others involved in this case.
And because I can’t put a picture of E on the web, I thought I’d share this one with you. It’s priceless. A little strange, but priceless.
