orphan Dear God, Thank you so much for all the unbelievable blessings you have given me. I have two beautiful, healthy children and an awesome husband who I love more every day. Please let my husband see how many unwanted children there are in this world and let one who needs a family come into our lives. I get sick when I see how children are neglected or abused. I feel like caring for one of your children is my calling, yet I keep hearing these horror stories of emotionally-disturbed children that had been adopted and the adoptive parents cannot take care of them. So that does scare me somewhat; but please help me not to think of what “could” happen. You blessed us with such love in our family and the means to support our kids, I know any child that needed a family would thrive with us. Please give me direction. Should I seek out a needy child or will one naturally come to us? Marcy, Raleigh/NC/USA

    I hope you find the answer that you need Miss Marcy. It’s very kind and thoughtful of you to think of other children.

    Marcy, I also have the same feelings as you. I have two beautiful children, a wonderful husband, a blessed life. However, I am haunted by the thoughts of all the abused, abandoned and neglected children in the world. I hold my girls and I can’t help but think of all the children that don’t have a safe place to call home. Am I being called by God to save a child? I hope you find the answer to your question. I hope I do too.
