Proverbs 24:12

"...once our eyes are opened we can't pretend we don't know what to do. God, who weighs our hearts and keeps our souls, knows that we know, and holds us responsible to act."

Willing Hearts

http://willinghearts.blogspot.com/2008/04/kids.html

A good read about some of the children who still wait at Layla ... the children we met, and now love.

The only inaccuracy I found: "There is a vow that all children will find a family within 2 years, and so far, no child has waited longer."
Our girls waited for almost 3 years, and their friends -also a group of three beautiful sisters - have waited even longer and still wait. The 'vow' to have children in families within 2 years only works if the families God is calling actually step forward in obedience.

The post you want to read under this link has moved down a bit on her blog. You'll have to look around a bit for it.

Interestingly, this woman was in Ethiopia just after us and traveled to almost the same places. Her descriptions of the Mukatore area are very similar to what we experienced.
