Nov 17th was Morris' 5th birthday. Although we were not able to be there with him we were able to send money for the nannies to buy him a cake. He seemed so happy to be able to celebrate it with all the other children. It breaks my heart to know there are so many beautiful children that still need someone to say I will love you! God has set the premise. Love as I have loved you. He has loved us when we didn't care. He has loved us when we betrayed Him. He has loved us despite our shortcomings and our sin. God may You burden our hearts to love others with that same love. A love that isn't based on performance. A love that takes sacrifice. A love that is not self serving. Lord give us YOUR Love!  We desperately need more of it each and every day. Happy Birthday little buddy...We want to love you more each day!

A song I wrote inspired by my sweet little niece who was also adopted from China- God has really stirred our hearts for adoption through what He has done in and through my sister and her husband who now have adopted 3 children from China. The name of our band (Esterlyn) was named after this precious little girl.
Luke





He heals the broken hearted
He binds their wounds
He is Love

He finds those forgotten
Those who have been abused
He is Love

He knows your name

A Father to the fatherless
A Healer of the brokeness You make
Beauty from the ashes

A Helper to the helpless
A Fighter for the hopeless You love 
Those who are alone

He comforts the lonely
He hears their cry
He is Love

He holds the children
Through the night
He is Love

He knows your name

A Father to the fatherless
A Healer of the brokeness You make
Beauty from the ashes

A Helper to the helpless
A Fighter for the hopeless You love 
Those who are alone

Gives us Your heart Lord help us love the unseen
And give us Your eyes Lord help us love those in need

This is a short clip about Gods heart for those in need. I share this often at our shows and it has personally stirred my heart. We have one life to live and then it is over. Lets not waste it just living. Lets live it for others!

Luke

Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained.
James 1:27
