Little Boy Lost

Today for some reason I have been thinking of someone that I don't even know- I just know of him. A few miles from here there is a little boy in a really tough spot that he has no real control over. He has plenty of worries in his little heart - Where will he spend Christmas? Why can't he find a family to love and be loved by? Why can't he ever be "good enough" to be loved? What will happen to him? Where will he be a year from now? He's pretty much stopped believing in himself and the future. I wonder- will he become a truly lost child?

I don't know why I thought of him today, but I did. Maybe you all can think about him, too, and carry a prayer in your heart for a little boy who just needs someone to love him and believe in him and hang in there with him. And say a prayer too, for the Mom and Dad who can give him everything he needs. They are out there somewhere. They probably haven't met him yet, but maybe we all can pray him into their hearts.

That is an easy request. No problem. I truly hope he doesn't become lost and finds a great Mom and Dad.

Funny that you were thinking of him--I worry about him every day. Beyond love and prayers, I'm not sure what else can be done. But I think he'll take all the prayers he can get!

I wish I could take him. I sure think about him a lot. Hopefully he'll have some good luck soon, he's due some...
