James 1:27 says that "pure and undefiled religion is this, to visit widows and orphans in their distress". -The Lord sure has put this on my heart lately! It doesn't get any clearer than that! The bible commands us to take care of widows, to take care of orphans. My heart breaks for the orphans I see in pictures, that I read about in blogs. I want to DO something! I don't want to just sit here and feel sorry for them! I keep asking the Lord how can I help, what can I do? I tell Him I am willing, I am ready. Do I wait, or do I try to make things happen on my own. I really want to get involved with foster care. I am praying that the Lord would put this on Stan's heart too! I want to make a difference, I want to take care of the children who don't have parents, or parents who just can't take care of them right now. So I wait, I pray and I hope that God would make it clear how I can be involved! I am willing, it is scary but I refuse to let fear stand in my way!
Psalm 86:11, "Teach me Your way, O Lord, that I may walk in Your Truth; unite my heart to fear your Name."
