I feel excited for the children and families who are in the process of adoption. What some inspirational stories and incredible testimonies of how the Lord works to set the lonely in families!
I also feel sad for the many children who have no one interested in them. Our Ben was actually one of those kiddos. We first saw Ben's listing back in 2014, but I am not sure when he first appeared on the website. Ben was just over 6 years old when he finally came home to our family. That is a looong time to wait for a family.
The other emotion I feel is just plain overwhelmed because there are so many children. Where do you start praying and advocating? Sometimes it can feel like because I can't help all the children, why even try?
I understand I am having a very small view of God when I feel overwhelmed. God can handle all the children on that website because He loves each one with a fierce and strong love that can bear through anything. God also works through many people to achieve His purpose in these children's lives so if we each do our one part, we can accomplish much for the Lord.
Remember, there are many children listed on RR, but they each only need ONE family to step forward for them. Could you be the ONE family for ONE of these children?
Please prayerfully consider adopting!

In particular, please consider beautiful Bryannah:
Our family is her prayer warrior. This sweet girl has been in a mental institution since 2011. Please!

If you would like to "talk" about adopting, please feel free to leave a comment on this blog. I would love to start a discussion!
Don't be overwhelmed. Instead be the ONE God can use.
