Psalm 10:8 - 18
8 He [the wicked] sits in ambush in the villages; in hiding places he murders the innocent. His eyes stealthily watch for the helpless; 9 he lurks in ambush like a lion in his thicket; he lurks that he may seize the poor; he seizes the poor when he draws him into his net. 10 The helpless are crushed, sink down, and fall by his might. 11 He says in his heart, "God has forgotten, he has hidden his face, he will never see it." 12 Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up your hand; forget not the afflicted. 13 Why does the wicked renounce God and say in his heart, "You will not call to account"? 14 But you do see, for you note mischief and vexation, that you may take it into your hands; to you the helpless commits himself; you have been the helper of the fatherless. 15 Break the arm of the wicked and evildoer; call his wickedness to account till you find none. 16 The LORD is king forever and ever; the nations perish from his land. 17 O LORD, you hear the desire of the afflicted; you will strengthen their heart; you will incline your ear 18 to do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed, so that man who is of the earth may strike terror no more.

Rebel Fighting Imminent
The region where N and A are living is becoming increasingly unstable. They are in a dangerous place as a rebel group is threatening their town of Goma and other surrounding towns. Please pray for their safety. Of course, if the city is under siege and at war they will be fleeing and suffering and not processing adoptions. More urgently at this point, their lives could be in danger. This is a brutal and very violent group. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOwLpVv3I-o&feature=em-share_video_user Please pray for this nation and our hopeful children there! This is the very reason these precious children are up for adoption, there are millions of orphans as the oppression has had little reprieve for generations. How can this be allowed to continue? God, arise and defend the fatherless!
