Tonight I looked into the eyes of a 2 year old who recently came into foster care with a friend of mine.  What I saw was hauntingly familiar- not that I can honestly say I remember when Charis had that look in her eyes but I see it every time I look at pictures of our first days together.  It's a look of terror, bewilderment and a little relief all mixed together.  I wanted to take this little one in my arms and tell her it's alright-she's safe now and my friend will take good care of her.  And she will, but how long until this little ones life gets turned upside down again?  Lord, I'm coming to you tonight asking you to be with this little one, and all the other little ones in the world who wonder who will love them, who will care for them, who will feed them.  Let them feel Your love and Your presence and Lord show us how to be you hands for those in need.  Please bless those who care for orphans, children in foster care and other caretakers.  And Lord please give a special blessing to all those waiting for forever families.
