God has a special place in His heart for widows and orphans. Throughout the Bible we see many important people raised as adopted children. Moses, Samuel, Esther, King Joash, and many others. God has adopted us into His family and we should be prepared to do foster care and adoption too. There is no person or child that God doesn’t have a plan for.
Merle tells a personal story about a child they took care of and Edith’s continued prayers for her even after she left their home. The power of a praying mother cannot be completely comprehended.
