The Passed Over Babes

On Saturday I opened up the Angel Tree and began to scroll through the faces.

Many of them new faces... first time Angel Tree children. 

But many were way too familiar.  And it saddened me.  Faces of children who have sat for two or more years on the tree.

                               Artem                                  Sergei                                     Spencer 

   

Children who will AGAIN be hanging ON a tree this year instead of sitting UNDER it.  Children who have spent one more year of their lives isolated and alone.  Most of them passed over because of bad pictures or because of sad expressions on their faces.  How to get them noticed?  How to get them from being passed over another year??

What could I do? 

I clicked on several of the links.  Prayed over them - wondered.   What could I do?  I felt the Lord nudging but what could I do?  I don't have money for a big Giveaway.  I'm well aware I have done precious little for Spencer's grant account.  Artem is still without a family.  There are so many more.  So many more.

They all have Christmas Warriors so why shouldn't I just concentrate on my own???

What could I do??

Yet the faces of those who have hung for so long lay heavy on my heart.  What could I do?  God was nudging but what could I do?

Amazingly, God wasn't just nudging my heart.  Another Mom's heart was also being nudged.  He nudged her enough that she sent me an e-mail.  On Saturday morning about the same time I was staring at faces on the Angel Tree she was writing me a letter.  Her Angel Tree child has been wasting away on the Tree too.  No family in sight.  What could she do? She had some money set aside and offered it to me for a Giveaway.   We could raise money AND AWARENESS for Spencer and for her little guy.  And anyone else I chose. 

I sat stunned and in awe.  OUT OF ALL THE ANGEL TREE KIDS... Her Angel Tree child was ONE OF THE CHILDREN I HAD CLICKED ON.  HER LITTLE GUY WAS ONE I HAD PRAYED OVER!

Sergei

Dear Lord.  The Father of the Fatherless nudging hearts into action. 

All the faces of the little ones whom I recognized on the tree from last year... and the year before.  They flashed in front of me as I read her offer.  THOSE were the babes I wanted to help.  Those little ones.  My Spencer, My Artem, Her Sergei and more.
