Being a father of four, I cannot even imagine the heart-wrenching decision it must have been to simply leave your child at an orphanage, with the hope that he would have a better life. Looking at him I saw the faces of my own children, he even looks like he could be a relative!
Baby B is doing much better. He is healthy, strong, and active, and he will probably be adopted by a North American family or European family within the year.
Testing your teeth can be painful.
This is painted on the front wall of the orphanage:
Even if my father and mother abandon me
the Lord will hold me close.
Psalm 27:10

One response to “Even if My Father and Mother Abandon Me . . .”
We will be following the future of this little one closely as we named him, since he was a foundling. He was named after our middle son, who is now 19 and studying in university. Both were greatly loved of God from their mother's womb. One had a loving family all his life and the other, this little one who just turned one year old, will have a loving family soon, after he is matched through the adoption process. Please pray for the right family to get him and raise him to serve the Lord God Almighty.
