Prayers for Court

We believe our court hearing will be in Ethiopia tomorrow (while we are sleeping tonight). This hearing will be the legal adoption of our three children to us as their forever family. We wait anxiously, and yet with full hope and belief, to hear the outcome. Would you please petition the throne on behalf of our family and these three children during these next 18 or so hours, until we hear the outcome? Our God is so good to us and we trust Him with the details of this proceeding. We are praying that tomorrow will be the day that we can officially call these children our own.

Psalm 33:21,22 In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name. May your unfailing love rest upon us, O LORD, even as we put our hope in you.
