ADOPTION CHANGES LIVES
I shudder to think where our family would be without the gift of adoption. We would be on the road to consumerism and "The American Dream". Did adoption shatter our old dreams, ABSOLUTELY! Adoption opened our eyes to how the rest of the world lives. Before we could only imagine, one has to see to be transformed. Knowing isn't enough for most people, at least it wasn't enough for me. I needed the images racing through my mind and dreams to change me. I have seen what early neglect and trauma does to a child. We can't repair all the damage done,but we can be their for them in their time of need. That is what orphans need, someone to supply theire needs and be there for them when no one else is. Little things we take for granted brushing our teeth, going to the doctor when we are sick, and having a place to call home with people that will love us forever. Orphans don't know forever, they have hurt , disappointment , and abandonment.
Psalm 68:6
God sets the lonely in families, he leads out the prisoners with singing; but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land.
