A Vanity Prayer Request
N/A | 04/25/2017 | MortMan

Posted on 04/25/2017 11:15:49 AM PDT by MortMan

I am not in the habit of posting vanities, but my family and I need some prayer. My Wife of nearly 28 years and I are adopting a little girl. The mother asked up to adopt, but has recently been giving mixed signals as to whether she still wants it to happen. The father has no interest in his youngest daughter.

I learned today that we finally have a court date in late May. I hope and pray that the mother realizes what is best for the little girl, who has been living with us full time since August 2016.

Please pray that this will all work out as painlessly and beneficial as possible. My fervent hope is that means an easy adoption, but I recognize that my desires are not necessarily God's.

I am not used to being so afraid - I and my whole family love this little angel and desperately want her to become part of our family. Thank you all in advance!

Thank you. For whoever reads this, I will be turning in soon - I am in Europe at the moment, and it’s 10pm. Time for sleep.

This I sincerely believe, that John 15:13 “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends”, could easily be expanded in the case of Adoptive Parents.

“Greater love hath no one than this, that a family open their lives and love to one otherwise helpless, hopeless and tempest-tossed!”

May a Gracious God Grant you your wishes!

I am posting to sort of pat you on the back in encouragement and also hope to be kept abreast of the news and path of this case. How wonderful that little girl is loved so much!!!! I know it must scare the bio mom to approach the date of finality. I pray she isn't scared right off, with the child.
God bless your family and your little daughter.
