Adoptions

November is National Adoption Awareness month and no other subject in my opinion needs more awareness than adoption. Over the course of this month, I would like to share with you all the heart felt stories I have come across about families and their experiences with adoption. To start with, some words of wisdom about adoption….

“The Bible calls debt a curse and children a blessing.  But in our culture we apply for a curse and reject blessings.  Something is wrong with this picture.” – Doug Phillips

Exodus 22:22-24 – “You shall not afflict any widow or orphan.  If you afflict him at all, and if he does cry out to Me, I will surely hear his cry; and My anger will be kindled, and I will kill you with the sword….”

I took these from a story that really touched my heart about a family who started by fostering children and now their family has grown by adopting 6. She makes many valid points about adoption and the difficulties that they have encountered.
