Would you be willing to care for a teenager for a little while?
If someone had asked me that
question a few months ago, I would have said, No way! The sweet, little
innocent babies? Of course! The medically fragile ones or the ones with
special needs? I will consider it,
depending on the season of our life and what is happening in our family. The older ones? Sorry, I’m just not comfortable with having a
troubled teen in my home.
That would have been my response a
few months ago. This, however, is today. You just never know when an ordinary day and
a simple prayer can open your heart. When
a chance encounter will form an unlikely bond.
When God will give you the opportunity, and then the courage, to say yes.
