I hope everyone had a very merry christmas and if not my sympathy is with you. I have a new topic. Adoption. Lots of people talk about abortion but adoption is alot less talked about,but it isn't less important. Children die everyday because they didn't have a good enough home. I feel very strongly about this point. There are many aspects to it of course. Like foreign vs domestic adoption. Foster care vs just adoption. I think both are great, but people have there ideas on them. I hope to break those to down in the next couple of weeks. 1 jame27 says"Pure religion, undefiled before God the Father, is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. "
Job 22:9-10 says You have sent widows away empty,
And the strength of the fatherless was crushed. 10 Therefore snares are all around you,
And sudden fear troubles you,
These verse lead me to believe that we should help them. I feel that if I am going to have a family and homeschool children then I couldn't do that without bring a orphan or fatherless child hope and if everyone felt the way I think we could save alot of those children. I don't mean to just bring them in your home and take care them but to love the and teach them about God as well as we would are own children. I understand that not everyone is meant to and some people are hindered because of aliments but if we all had the same knowledge about adoption I believe we could accomplish alot.
