Issues

So the issue at hand... Caleb and Isabel's mom wants them back. The situation they would be returning to sounds like it would be the same as the one they left. Their mom says her heart breaks for her kids and she can't stand the thought of being without them (understandably). And yet, they will not be able to give total proper nutrition or any education to the kids. We are praying hard and need your prayers. Pray for the best for the kids. God sees the whole picture and we do not, so pray also for our peace. It seems strange to us that it would not be of God that they come home to us. God knows we would do all we could to keep the kids in touch with their family and raise them to love their culture. And what opportunities they would have. Please just pray hard and declare scripture over them. We will let you know when we know anything else.
