I remember the first time I heard this song. I think it was about 6 years ago. I was in my kitchen. And as I heard the chorus, I stopped and broke down and cried. The Lord was breaking my heart for the orphan ... and it was then I knew ... that we were called to adopt.

The Christmas Stroll

Every year since it's inception, my little business, Wild Prairie Farms, has participated in the Whitehall Christmas Stroll. And every year I average about the same amount in sales. Last year with the economy so poor, it was the worst ever.

Well this year, it took me about 3 solid weeks to get ready, with the last week being 8-10 hour days in the kitchen .... Yikes.

For the past 2 years, sales from our website www.wildprairiefarms.net and Farmer's Markets have gone directly to our Adoption Fundraisers. So this year, I made an extravagent prayer request and asked the Lord for $1000 in sales ... WELL over my usual.

By noon I had made a whopping $120, by 3:00 $379. But by 6:00, closing time, with sales and donations, the Lord gave us $1039. Thank you Jesus!

I tell you this, only to say that the Lord is able to do more than we can imagine or think. He cares for the orphan ... What are you believing Him to do for you and your family today? Ask Him ... He is able!
