International Women's Day

Today is International Women's Day. (Don't worry, we didn't get you a gift either.) But one gift you can give is to pray for the birth mothers of our two adoptive kids. We don't know the exact circumstances that led them to put these two kids up for adoption, but we can only imagine that it was a difficult decision. We'll likely never meet these women, but they have made an eternal impact in our lives. The frank reality is that there were a lot of decisions they could have made related to these kids, but we are pleased that they chose life. They chose to give these kids some kind of a chance, and now we are pleased to fold these kids into our lives and our family.

Would you stop and pray today for these two women? Pray also for the thousands of women all over the world who, due to poverty and oppression and other factors find themselves facing similar, difficult decisions.
