Royalty

 When I think about the Bible and how God calls us his own and that we are like Royalty adopted into his family I cant help but think about the millions of Babies....Royalty in God's eyes that lay awake at night longing for a forever family. Dreaming of the day that someone will come rescue them from there present state of living a nightmare and treat them as they should be treated....as God sees them.

Its true friends....what you hear people say...Once your eyes are opened up to truth you are never able to shut them. My husband and I have recently been asking for God to continue to open our eyes to this dying world around us and find ways to connect with the heart of God and make a difference for the Kingdom in this short life here on earth. So our most recent convictions come in the form of 2 very hard truths...Abortion and Orphans....yes you can stop reading right now if you arent in the mood for the heaviness that those 2 words bring....but take heart that God also feels that same weight with those words.

As we are sorting through and educating ourselves on these 2 topics My heart has taken me on a journey to explore the world of Adoption...and specifically China. I have no idea why other than the holy spirit nudging me to read...educate myself and after prayer allow God to show us what our response is to it.....

Im not saying we are going to adopt a baby girl from China but what I am saying is that its important that we as Christians face the hard Words...and allow God to change us.....We need to be open and honest with ourselves and know that as hard as it is those things exist and they are at the center of the Heart of Christ.

My worst day at home with 2 kids....is some childs best day that lives in an orphanage....

They are Royalty my friends....they are the least of these.....
