My heart's desire

I desire to help, love, care for and provide a family environment for orphans in India, perhaps start an orphanage or take kids into our home. These children are so precious and often very hopeless. The reason I have not wanted to blog about this is because I don't want to sound like I am trying to be the next Mother Teresa. I am just little old me with a desire to help. I have a genuine love for the kids of India and especially those who have no parents and who get exploited because of it. I was deeply moved by the kids we met at the Agra train station whom I assume had no parents.

It is a biblical command to look after the orphans and I believe God has placed in me a desire to do this. At this stage I do not know in what capacity this would look like. I am only in the infant stages of brainstorming and seeing what God shows us. It may not happen straight away and perhaps it will be better when our youngest is a wee bit older, I don't know yet. What I do know is that something is stirring within me in regards to this.

Even as a young kid, I had vivid dreams of finding abandoned babies and bringing them home and looking after them. I even used to look in the bushes on the way to school to see if anyone had placed a baby in there for me to find.

Have a look at these gorgeous children we met in India. Who wouldn't want to take them home and give them a loving home to grow up in?
