Prior to implementing an orphan care strategy, it is important for us to reflect on why we care for orphans. Clearly Scripture calls us to do so, but our obediance is only part of the story. By God's grace and sovereignty, He has adopted us into His family, making it possible for us to engage and sustain orphan care initiatives. The following reflection on our spiritual adoption -and its implications for us personally and for our ministries- was provided by Together for Adoption:
