Dear Friends,
We could use some prayer here. I have two new foster kids aged 8 and 3 they are hurt (by thier moms absence and harsh treatment from the last foster home). They have been diagnosed with attatchment disorders and with eating disorders. Their mom is on drugs and cannot get herself together and is pregnant.
The older one "Z" (boy) is sad, he lies to make himself look better. He has plans and hopes to go back to his mom. He is a sweet kid but he will be heartbroken if/when his moms rights are terminated.
The little girl is angry and defiant, she trusts no adult as they have all hurt her in the past. She has begun to warm up to me but she will have NOTHING to do with my husband. If he tries to interact with her she whines and grunts and tries to push him away.
My biochildren are doing fine with the transition. My older son is the same age as the boy and they get along great. I watch them carfully but have not seen any serious conflict. My 1 year old son just likes having lots of people around.
Please pray that God brings love, unity, peace and healing to our home. That the 3 year old would come to trust and even love us. That the 8 year old would find healing and acceptance. That we find balance as a family.
Thank you for being here for us,
Rhonda

Father, these babies are so young and so frightened and angry at the adult world that they see as the enemy who won't let them return to their mommy. Please touch these little hearts with Your love and melt them to trust You and their fostering Mommy and Daddy. Bring their hearts home to roost in Your Love and hold them gently in Your hands as You shape their lives and their futures. Bring them naturally into Salvation and healing of their hearts. Jesus please lay Your hands on them and Bless them with all the goodness they can take and lead them to Your Daddy so that they can have a Daddy too. Thank You Father for Rhonda and her husband! Bless them with Favor as they raise these babies and nurture them up in Your Love and Mercy! Give them wisdom to know how to melt the stones their hearts have turned into in order to protect themselves, let the spirit of wisdom whisper in their ears every time they have a challenge from these babies. Let the children You gave them continue to accept and love their new siblings and bring this family together in great Joy and in Your Love. In the Name of Jesus, AMEN!

Lord Jesus, I pray for these precious children, whom the enemy has attacked at so young of an age. Lord, embrace them in your love. Gird them up, and give them peace. Protect them from any further plans of the enemy. They should not have this much pain this early in their lives. Lord, I uplift this family that you have placed them in. I pray that through this family they will begin to feel safe and secure and loved. Send your ministering angels to just pour the love of the Father into them. I pray for their Mother with her drug problem. Lord, I pray for an awakening in her. I ask that you would visit her in the night season, and speak to her heart about her soul and about change in her life, and her children. Heal this family, and let there be new beginnings in this Mothers life. Deliver her from addiction, and place in her heart a desire to want to change. In the meantime, guide this foster family in ministering love, patience, and strength to these children. God bless them as they go forward for these children. In Jesus Name I pray!AMEN!
