It's Orphan Sunday

Today is Orphan Sunday.  I thought about writing a super long post about what adoption means to me and all the ways you can get involved.  Instead, I've deferred to David Platt and his book "Radical" which incidentally was a catalyst in us beginning this journey ourselves...he says...

 
"...orphans are easier to ignore before you know their names.
They are easier to ignore before you see their faces.
It is easier to pretend they're not real
before you hold them in your arms.
But once you do, everything changes."
 
 
How true.
 
Anyone who has gone on a mission journey and worked with orphans will tell you.
 
And I can tell you.
 
From personal experience...
 
This face changed everything for us.
 
And continues to change us every day.
 
What is God telling YOU to do?
