Adoption – The Narrow Path

Someone told me the other day that he doesn’t feel the call by Yahweh to adopt or even help other people adopt.  In fact he said he doesn’t even like it that we are spending so much time talking about it.  He said that he was never given a directive to take part in it and it was disruptive. 

At first I was upset, then mad, then upset all over again. 

Here was someone who was a good friend.  Someone who was supposed to be a follower of Yahweh. 

Did he not read passage after passage in the Bible telling us to take care of the widows and orphans?  Did he not read James 1:27 where it says true religion is taking care of the widows and orphans?

Tom is great.  My husband puts things into quiet perspective when I get all caught up in the emotion of it.  He said remember, the path is narrow and few are on it.  The reason it’s narrow is because it’s hard and most people want easy.

Remember the Staples commercial about the easy button?
