Exposing a Colossal Need
/“For I know the plans that I have for you, declares the Lord. “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,” declares the Lord”
I continue to face a series of fires. It is challenging me to my core. At this moment, I need your help with this. Does anyone know of an excellent NY State barred attorney that practices family law (in Central Upstate New York) interested in taking on a custody case Pro Bono? Here is why.
My mom was guardian of my niece and nephew since birth. When she passed, I stepped into her shoes to raise them. It was something placed on my heart a long time ago, but not like this.
I opened my home to my niece and nephew. I did what had to be done. I took off from work without pay to get them through the remainder of the school year, support all four children’s emotional needs, and cast a vision for where we are going together as a family, in Jesus’ name.
More than pride, understand that this is an ongoing legal matter which makes is difficult to discuss at present. Over-simplified-view: I have a custody matter. This week I had a virtual court appearance to discuss the same. I had to find coverage for my shift at the hospital to be fully present. Although I sought legal opinion, I did not proceed with retaining an attorney. I arrived to the meeting without legal counsel. Everyone else was represented. It gave me pause, still there was nothing I could do in that moment.
Then the fire alarm went off in the court building.
But God.
Do you know someone that would like to help?
