Many, O LORD my God, are Your wonderful works
Which You have done;
And Your thoughts toward us
Cannot be recounted to You in order;
If I would declare and speak of them,
They are more than can be numbered.
Then I said, "Behold, I come;
In the scroll of the book it is written of me.
Psalm 40:5;7
Update:
Melonie has moved from our traditional Dark Horses list but we are still asking for prayer for her!
Because of the conflict in her country she is currently not able to be adopted.
Original Post:
This month's Dark Horse is 13 year old Melonie!
Melonie has a number of diagnosis that seem odd to me and there is no explanation about them. It makes me wonder if they are old (as in her condition when she first came into institutional care?) Head injuries and malnutrition are things that should be treated right away and should ultimately be treatable. Or it seems they should have discovered other underlying conditions. But no such things are listed.
All that to say Melonie is a bit of a mystery and for that reason she tugged at my heart. Who is this young lady? Buried in labels what would we find underneath?
Please join us in prayer for Melonie!
Dear Father, I thank You for this precious girl. Thank You that Your thoughts toward her are more than can be numbered. She is written in Your book and her days are all known to You.
I ask that You would bring her out of this dark place she is hidden away in and deliver her life from the fear that keeps families away from her.
Please move upon the hearts of her future parents, that they would press through to learn the truth. And even in the face of the unknown, give them the grace and the boldness to step out and bring their daughter home.
I thank You that Your salvation has been sent to her.
In Jesus Christ' name, amen.
