Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.                           James 1:12


My heart is burdened by the plight of the orphan.  I just cannot forget them even though my hands are so full and overflowing.  Everyone asks and it is certainly OK, how much does "it" (adoption) cost????   Does any one ever question the thought and purchase of a new car.  If everyone in the US held on to their older car the money to buy a car could save a child's life.  Think of all the orphans  that would have families.  Let us put our greed aside and look to the true future.  On our last day I do not want to regret any thing that I did not do.  I know that we are forgiven, but with truth and forgiveness comes great responsibility.

I often think that pets in America are more loved  and pampered than the 147 million orphans world wide:(
