I posted a prayer back in April 2023 reguarding my daughter and youngest son. I had actually forgot about this site until I received a notification today that someone had prayed over my request. Returning to the site to see all the new prayer requests for parents fighting for their children, not only broke my heart for all of you, but reminded me that I am not alone in this. Our system is broken and there seems to be very little that is being done to change the system. BUT GOD IS BIGGER!!! Despite all of the attempts and attacks the enemy uses to bring us down and to turn out backs on GOD, He is still able to bring forth light to dark places. I am encouraged today by one of my sisters in Christ who reminded me that God knows the heart of everyone and He does see all the injustice that is happening, not only in my case but in all of yours as well. We must keep our focus on our Savior, no matter how difficult things get, no matter how many tears we shed, or how our hearts long to hold our children....we must remain in Him, our great comforter, healer, redeemer.
A little more detail about my case:
In 2018 I was struggling with a drug addiction and it reached a point where I wanted my children (3) to be safe. I reached out to a "friend" who lived in a different state to see if she could help. She did and came to pick my kids up. 2 months later she said she needed "temporary" custody in order to place my older 2 kids in school. I reluctantly agreed, but agreed nonetheless. 3 weeks after I gave her temporary custody she called me and said she could not care for my (then) 2 year old son because she was going back to school full time and said she would be sending him to her sister in yet another state. I ended up going to jail shortly after that conversation and again agreed she could send him to her sister. This whole time she and her sister were seeming to encourage me and told me often how they would walk along side me to get better and prepare my children to be reunited with me when i was stable. After i was released from jail and charges were dropped, communication with my kids dwindled and i got scared i was not going to see them again, so i left the life and everyone i knew behind and drove to the state my older 2 kids were to see them for Thanksgiving 2018. At the time i had almost 2 months of recovery. When I arrived at her house with gifts and food in hand, i was turned away and she called the police and presented the temporary custody order. My youngest son was not there and i never gave custody of him to her sister, so i drove to the state he was in and had to get the police involved to have them return him to me. Once i had gotten my youngest i drove back to the state my older 2 were in and i began making plans to take her to court for them. 2 days after i returned with my youngest i was woke up at 2 am by 5 sheriff's officers stating that the people who had my youngest have been granted an emergency ex parte order. I had to give my baby back to them. The courts held a hearing 5 days later and had me take a hair follicle, whice was positive at the time because i only had 2 months of recovery and the test goes back 3 months. They then denied my visitation to my youngest. That case went nowhere and a year later was dismissed, however 5 days after it was dismissed i was served with adoption papers and a new court date. This was in January 2020. Meanwhile I continued to fight for my other 2 kids in the state where ive now been living for 5 years. In 2019 the judge here found me unfit based off my facebook and past drug lifestyle, but he did not terminate my rights but instead gave me visitation and stated in his order that "I could someday have custody of my children". After seeing my older kids for the next 2 years, moving closer to them and maintaining freedom from addiction (along with having to go back to court several times for contempt on the other person, because she absolutely refuses to follow orders) I motioned the court to reinstate my superior parental rights and return custody. A new trial began and was stopped when my oldest wanted to come home but my daughter did not. Now we are under another temporary order where i have custody of my oldest son and she has custody of my daughter. Yall my daughter is being torn apart mentally and praise God the therapist she is seeing now is willing to testify to the manipulation she is suffering, but another put off on the court date going forward. Needless to say i still jave not seen my youngest son or my daughter but i can see God working. I pray God will protect the minds of all of our children and bring to light everything that others try to keep hidden in the dark.
