DEEP
So I have this friend. And it turns out that we have something unusual in common. We both love foster kids, but that isn't the uncommon part. What sets my friend apart is that she loves the birth parent of her foster kids. In case you blew past that, let me say it again. She loves the birth parent of her foster kids. She believes she is called to do that - to create opportunities for a mom that has never had anything. To offer relationship that doesn't have strings attached. Her husband believes it too. And her friends are starting to. In fact, she rounded up a whole army of people who are willing to go deep with her. To get dirty. To work hard. To hurt. To get frustrated. To pray. To encourage. To support. To hope. And most of all? To love. It's really what we should be about. Because you don't have to be responsible FOR someone to be responsible TO them.
PRAYER FOR BIOLOGICAL FAMILIES: Today, we lay before You the trials and tribulations of the biological families in the child welfare system. Grant them fortitude, faith, and patience. Give them the strength to put aside the past and look to the future; show them peace in chaos and wisdom in turmoil. Amen.
