Praying for & with my friend

This morning, I sat in my office crying with my sweet friend Lesa as discussed the coming week. What brought her to this point: Memorial Day weekend 2008, she was asked by a girl that she didn't know if she would watch her infant son. I can remember talking about it with her. She went and got the baby. He was ashen, unresponsive and had a far away look in his eyes. She had no idea what this sweet 4 month old baby had been through. His biological mom never came to pick him up. She wanted Lesa to take care of him. A few weeks later, Lesa and her husband Ray went to court to obtain guardianship of Mak. Since then, they have been raising this precious boy. Mak turned 1 in January. He is such a sweet little boy and reminds me of Lesa's 3 older boys. Isn't it funny how God does that!?! Monday at 1:00 pm Lesa and Ray will go to court for the termination of Mak's biological mother's parental rights. Our prayer is that God will miraculously intervene and the judge will grant not only the termination but Lesa and Ray's request for adoption. Ever since Lesa and Ray got Mak, I have completely believed that God gave Mak to this family. There is a reason and a purpose for all of this. Please pray with me that Mak will officially become a Baxter on Monday.
