Big Prayer Request

I'm not sure if I mentioned before that one of my older brothers has been going through a horrific divorce and his two young sons ( 8 and 7) have been in the middle of all of this.  My brother has worked on being peaceful but his ex has done nothing but berate my brother and his family, make untrue accusations (all unfounded of course) and tell his sons that he hates them and he's a horrible man and father.  This has been going on for more than 2 years with much damage being done to the oldest son.  My nephew is suffering...and will need lots of therapy.  Please pray for this family!

Anyways, last spring, my brother hired a new attorney (someone who understood his case) and today we found out that my brother has been granted resi.dential cus.tody!!!!  He's going to have the boys full time now (and get them the help they so desperately need) and she's going to have supervised visits (judge read over all of the documents and saw lots of poor parenting on her side plus other things).  For so long it just seemed like the courts were doing nothing...and my brother kept taking this abuse.  She was told to stop and make sure the boys got visitation with their dad...but she did not stop and just a few weeks ago...his sons came to his house for the first time in two years. Finally, the judge saw what was really going on and made a decision on who would be a better parent for those boys. 

This is a prayer answered!  Please pray for my brother and these boys.  They have a long journey of healing ahead of them.  And...pray for my ex-sister in law.  She's going to need help.  I pray, just pray, she doesn't do anything irrational or very stupid.  She has told the boys that she'll take them to another country...really.  Hence, the supervised visits.  She is so full of hate.  So hate and vengeful.  To be burdened with that much hate can not be good.  I'm sure she'll cause scenes and trouble.   She has already and now this development could make it worse.

Thank you in advance for the prayers and hopefully, either spring break or summer break, I will be able to see my nephews again.  I haven't gone near them since I was afraid my ex sister in law would make accusations against my dh and I.  That wouldn't be good since we are both teachers.

Dear Lord...hear our prayer!
