We are expecting...we just don't know when.

As we were looking at day cares today people would ask me what age my child was it reminded me of being pregnant and looking for a day care. Day care people would ask when you were due and then you could plan from there. With foster care it isn't that our kid/s aren't born it is that they are sitting someone being abused or neglected or are about to be abused or neglected and will soon be coming into care. It breaks my heart to think that right now a child is being mistreated and that the mistreatment for 'our' child will continue until they come into our home. I know God has a plan for our lives and the life of 'our' child but it stinks to know that the plan includes pain and that we just have to wait for His timing. I know all of our lives either have had pain or will have pain in the future but it stinks to know that someone you are going to soon love very much is in pain and there is nothing you can do about it. Well, that isn't true...I have been doing something. I have been lifting up 'our' kid/s to God and praying for their safety and for the safety of their little bodies, hearts and minds. Please join me in praying for all the children in foster care, the children soon to come into care, and the children who should be in care but will never be.


Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."
