So, I have prayed and asked God to continue opening doors for me to minister to local foster families and kids. And He's answering those pleas. Not in ways I ever pictured, but then again, I am the human with the human tendencies to place the All Amazing God I worship, in a human made "box" with boundaries and limitations when, my HUMAN MIND is smart enough to KNOW BETTER ;) .
It serves as a beautiful reminder that our call to love and care for the widows and orphans of the world involves MORE than just the individuals who are willing to foster and adopt. It takes an army people. A village to raise a child.....yep, that's fo' sho!
How can you serve?
Make/provide meals for foster families.
Buy a gift card to Publix, Target, WalMart and give to a foster family. (or contact me for connections)
Get involved in Bridge A Life -a foster/adoption ministry at Bayside Community Church-you don't need to be a member at BCC to be involved. They have "Stew Crew" and "Hammer Time" just to name a few ministries within that ministry.
