It's a small world. (Sorry if the song starts running through your head.) A co-worker of mine came to me last week asking me about hosting an orphan in his home for a couple weeks this summer. He and his wife were approached by their church and agreed to host a little girl and he wanted my feedback from my experience. I smiled and said be prepared to fall in love. These children are starved for love and family. They crave a Dad and Mom who will love them and keep them. I asked him if they were looking to adopt and he said no, they just want to host. I smiled again and told him "that's what I said too."
I am praying for my friend that he and his wife will love that little girl. I pray that I have been a good witness and that they will consider adoption if their hosting experience goes well.
"Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven." Matthew 5:16
James 1:27 Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.
