Are you on the fence for adoption?

Here is a video of a dad talking to dads who are on the fence. The video certainly is meant for the moms too. Sometimes it is the dads who feel called and they are trying to get their wives on board.

I'm not sure why the words on his shirt are mirror imaged but it actually says "147 Million Orphans"...that is ONE HUNDRED FORTY SEVEN MILLION...how can our God possibly be happy with that?

"Religion that is pure and undefiled before God and
the Father is this: to care for orphans and widows
in their affliction and to keep oneself unstained by
the world." James 1:27

"Taking a child He placed in their midst, and putting
His arms around it He said to them, "Whoever receives
one child such as this in my name, receives me; and
whoever receives me, receives not me but the One who
sent me." Mark 9:36-37

There are many fears when we consider taking a step in faith...for some the steps are small and others they are huge. We are told over and over and over to NOT fear. Fear used to control my life is so many ways. The longer I've been on my own spiritual journey and trying to become the daughter God created me to be many of my fears have dissipated. Thanks to Satan those fears try to sneak back in from time to time but not to the extent they once were and I'm able to let go of them faster. Someone once told me to imagine taking Satan by the back of his neck...walking him to an open door...and giving him a swift kick in the rear end. That immediately puts a smile on my face.

"Greater is He who is in me than he (devil) who is in the world." 1 John 4:4

"No trial has come to you but what is human. God is
faithful and will not let you be tried beyond your strength;
but with the trial He will also provide a way out, so that
you may be able to bear it." 1 Corinthians 10:13
