Sean Goldman arrives at the U.S. consulate with his Brazilian stepfather Joao Paulo Lins e Silva in Rio de Janeiro December 24, 2009. Goldman\'s Brazilian family returned him to his American father ending a legal saga that strained ties between the countries. The legal battle over the 9-year-old sparked tensions between the United States and Brazil, and reached a crescendo with a threat in Washington to hold up the approval of billions of dollars of trade benefits to the South American nation.

I think it is an outstanding victory for this father and boy. There never should have been any problems with their reunion, which should have only parted them for two weeks. How amazing that a man who works as a family attorney would subject himself to this unlawful act. Thank the Lord. What a wonderful Christmas present for the Goldman\'s.
Amen! I have personally prayed for God's devine favor in the midst of the trials and turmoil. We must be cognizant that their are fatherless children globally in which I admonish Mr. Goldman for his perseverance despite all he has endured. My prayers are continuously with Mr. Goldman and his family. May God continue to richly Bless him and his family life beyond measure!
