My brother, Eric, will be attempting to get his children back legally from his estranged wife in a little more than 5 hours. He has not seen his children, Korin (age 10), Damon (aged 9), and Aaron (aged 8) in over a month, and they are his entire life.
My sister-in-law is an extremely disturbed individual with numerous psychiatric and physical problems, and ran away with the children one day while my brother was at work. He does not know where any of them are, has had no telephone contact, and has been searching frantically for them ever since.
Would you please pray that Eric can be reunited with his children, and that none of them come to any harm? Unfortunately, my brother lives in a state that automatically assumes the mother to be the better caretaker, but in this case I am hoping the judge will see otherwise.
Prayers for a reunion, and to keep the children safe.
He should ask for a "Court appointed special advocate"...then mention that the mother has psychological problems, and he would gladly submit to the same psych exam he is suggesting for her.
Keeping in mind that his psych exam would show the stress of the last month, but that it should also show that it is related to the sudden disappearance of his children. Mine showed a slight personality disorder with depression- specific (...which means "there is a reason for it")...his came back with a higher level of personality disorder-non specific.
Prayer Bump.

Awesome post! I'm so glad to hear that the "good" fathers are being recognized as the better choice for their children! Bless you and yours!

You got em!!
Prayers definitely up for your brother. Please let us know what happens.
A prayer, and encouragement: the fact that she absconded with the kids makes it likely the court will issue a "pick up order" to at least bring her back to the jurisdiction, at which time things can be sorted out.
Keep us posted, we'll be hoping for good news later today!

Thank You, Father, for my sister's insightful prayer. I agree with her and ask that only truth be revealed within court this day, with all consideration and voice given to Korin, Damon and Aaron. Thank You, Father! Amen!
May the protective white light of Jesus surround Korin, Damon and Aaron. May Jesus hold them from harm and show their mother, He is protecting them. May she look to God and bring the children home. Thank You Lord.

Prayers for justice for your brother and his children...
Thank you. I've seen/heard too many terrible divorce with children stories not to, especially for family of a Freeper. Do let us know how things turn out...
I will definitely post an update when I know something. My Dad was greatly comforted knowing that so many people from so many different places have taken the time to petition the Lord on behalf of the children. He will tell my brother as soon as he can.
My prayers for your brother and his children to be reunited!
