Over at A Place Called Simplicity, Linny is having another Crazy Love challenge...She is calling everybody to pray and fast for the orphans on Wednesday, September 8th.
How appropriate that September 8th also happens to be the day that we have a court hearing that will help determine our sweet Annie's future!
Like I've said before, we'd give anything in this whole world to keep our baby girl. She is every bit a part of our family and we can't imagine losing her. But as foster parents--we have no rights.
So we trust God. And trust in His perfect will.
For I know the plans I have for {Annie}, declares the Lord, plans to prosper {Annie} and not to harm {her}, plans to give {Annie} a hope and a future" Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for {Annie}, declares the Lord, plans to prosper {Annie} and not to harm {her}, plans to give {Annie} a hope and a future" Jeremiah 29:11
It is scary walking the path of fostering...there are so many unknowns.
BUT...God knows. We believe He has the perfect plan for Annie.
Please pray for peace for our family on the 8th. Pray that the judge's heart will be softened for this sweet baby, and that God gives him wisdom on what to rule! This case could go in so many different ways---it's very complicated.
Thank you so much for committing to pray with us on the 8th for all of the orphans of this world! Head over to Linny's blog and read about all of the other families in need of prayer for their children. You will be encouraged indeed! And thank you Linny for doing this---for being the voice of the orphans! <3

Oh friend,
Please know that I will be praying for your precious Annie on Wednesday . . . it is no coincidence that Linny would call a fast for your very court date.
Lord please hide Annie under Your wing, and please bring Your good plan to pass for this sweet baby girl. Be with Jenn and Karl and their children Lord, as they put their trust in You and You alone! Surround them all Lord. In Jesus name, Amen.

I'm dropping in from Linny's blog and have prayed for little Annie's situation. I'm not sure whether your court appointment has yet taken place, but I pray for God's hand in it all. Keep trusting in Him!
fostering is a special call and may it bless your family.
It has been a blessing and a pleasure to lift you up in prayer today. Can't wait to hear how God weaves the rest of your story.

Praying and fasting today for all our little peeps. Came to your blog via Linny's Crazy Love post. Join us on our journey to our little one, To Ethiopia For Eli. freedomhollowfarmkiddos.blogspot.com
With all of us standing in the gap and interceding for each other, we all need to believe God has all our kids futures taken care of. As hard as that is, we all need to keep our eyes on Him.
