My Ebenezer

I visited with Stella’s new foster mom yesterday in her home and I really like her. She seems to be a Godly woman whose heart is in the right place as she works to restore these kids. In fact, she has 9 brothers and sisters and most of them are foster parents. They all get together every Sunday after church.

I’m not sure how to put it into words, but there seems to be something very special about this home. The mom is very positive and seems to take every opportunity to fill these girls with love. I can’t remember her exact words, but she told me about a conversation she had with Stella where Stella said she was “different”. The foster mom explained to Stella something along the lines of “I am different because I am always positive. And I’m going to pour out of myself into you all the love and hope and positive thoughts I can muster.”

There is a schedule and everything is very well organized. Stella is going to hate it. But I think if she can stick it out that it’s exactly the kind of evironment she needs.

Keep praying.
