Don't you find children are very very adorable? I mean.. even though some are naughty, jumping around here and there, yelling at you some times, crying, making noises, moving things around as they like, and so on and so forth.. finally giving you headache and mental tiresome :D.. but still, when you touch her, look at her in her eyes, hmm.. don't you feel you just wanna hug her so closely and make her feel safe and loved?
Children have been ones of those I think the most in the last two years. Once I told myself, "I wanna adopt a child." Well, maybe that's too much. How about foster a child? There are just too many children in this world, in need of love and support. Some children have parents who are unemployed, some cannot afford school or even daily meals, some experience wars and injustice, some have special needs mentally or physically, some are abandoned by their parents. Whatever the case, it is too shameful for us to let it pass by. Can't we do something?
Check this out: CasaHogar.
Isn't he so cutteeee?? :) He is David Ruiz, a Mexican child now living in Casa Hogar, a shelter for poor children in the area. He and many others are among those who are blessed to have a place to live and food to eat everyday. Plus the opportunity to learn about God, and experience His love in such a beautiful way in their lives. Thanks to the generosity of those who sponsor him and the other children.
In Matthew 18:5, Jesus said, "And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me." reminding us to love little children and bring them to know Jesus. Think of how you can take part in shaping a child's life. If you can provide financial support them, do it. If you can share God's love and care to them, do it. If you can pray for them, do it. God hears, God sees, God loves you and all children. ^_^
Lie down on the grass and watch the vast sky, or close your eyes and hear the nature whispers. Let your mind free, and the wind shall take you wherever it goes.
