This is a hard thing… Nick and I have wrestled with it a lot. The orphan crisis DOES weigh on our minds DAILY. We’ve thought a lot about Isaiah 61 where it talks about Jesus coming to bring good news to the afflicted and to bind up broken hearts. Binding up broken hearts is something that can ONLY be done on a case by case basis. I do believe that God has chosen our family to be the vessel to bind up Nico’s broken heart. However, he’s just one little boy. And I don’t think it’s our job to “rescue” all the kids in the world, HOWEVER, I do think that we need to be part of the bringing “good news to the afflicted (poor, in some translations.)” I think that is something that CAN be done on a larger scale. That’s why I LOVE what Crosspointe is doing– being VERY intentional/strategic about a few things. If we can transform life for a few dozen orphaned children who will now grow up knowing what “family” means, think of the impact it will have on that city in the next generation, and the next and so on… There really is no easy answer– we just need to use this time called “today” while we have it. Anyway… I am rambling at this point. I look forward to seeing the movie…
