Urgent Prayer Request-court date-Ethiopia

As I type this, it is almost 5 a.m. in Ethiopia.  Today is my daughter's court date (March 3rd in Ethiopia). 

 I just found out, through an email from our agency that she will have to go to court and stand before the judge. She will be answering any questions the judge may have.  She has been told to answer with confidence and sureness before him. 

Would you pray? Please!!?

 My daughter is very shy, this is such a big deal in her little life.  I am told that all children over 10 years old have to do this now.  My mother's heart wants to go with her, wants to hold her and assure her that God will be with her, that she is NEVER alone.  I don't know if she knows this, would you pray that God's peace and love floods her.  That she has the words that need to be said and that she gets favor before this judge.  Please pray that no fear would rise against her, that she would be filled with God's Spirit in this.

Thank you. I am feeling very emotional.  When I am weak then He IS strong.

Why Kimmie?! Why do little children need to stand up in the court? That just seems so hard.

I have had tears in my eyes as I have prayed. As I prayed, I was covered in goosebumps from head to toe.... I couldn't stop praying for several minutes... I felt connected to your little girl, and convicted that someone special would be there for her in the courtroom, someone filled with the Holy Spirit. And of course the Holy Spirit Himself. :)

Phew! I just cannot wait until this girl is HOME. And I know you feel the same my dear friend.

*Big Hugs*,

Praying for your daughter and asking for special blessings of courage and confidence. Psalm 118 comes to mind..."The Lord is on my side, I will fear not."
