Urgent Prayer Request for my Brother (See update in post 364)
09/30/2005 | Self

Posted on 09/30/2005 6:03:00 AM PDT by Aracelis

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.

Father, in your infinite mercy and wisdom, guide all members of this family to their just and highest path within your Kingdom of grace and peace.

Affirm all love and justice within the heart of each.

Heal the sorrow and disillusionment of each family member, replacing it with complete devotion to You and reliance on You as the source and goal of all human love.

Rain blessings on Aracelis, her brother, his children and the children's mother as they all struggle towards reconciliation and healing. In Jesus' mighty name we pray, claiming in advance the miracle of Your omniscient resolution.

Amen!

Just received word from my Dad that Eric's wife did not even show up in court. No lawyer was present for her either. The police are now out looking for the children.

Thank you all so much for your prayers!

The term is summary judgement.

I don't know any more at this time. My brother and my Dad are meeting with the lawyers now, and I'll know more later. Thank you both!

Thank you, thank you, brothers and sisters. I'm going to rest a bit now because I've been praying since early this morning. I'll keep you all updated.

Great news for the long run! People like her love to nail their own coffins shut. Do you know if she was legally served a summons of the hearing today? There is a good chance the children, if found, will be taken into protective custody by the authorities until this is legally resolved, if so, they may appoint a guardian ad litem for the children, which is key. Your brother's mantra should then be, "I only want what is in the best interest of the children," (they love this) over and over and over. Pursuade the guardian to request a psychological evaluation of the mother.
