The Call

Every call has a beginning
A quiet moment when
God whispers a promise
to a mother's heart
A holy place where
a father bows and faithfully
accepts the journey set before him.
A miraculous morning that
unexpectectly dawns...
Casting it's first light on a chosen threshold
A gentle knock...
A closed door opens.
A scared invitation sent by the Father...
Leads to the other side of the world.
Where lonely hearts stare out orphanage windows,
Praying for someone to care...
And then one morning,
On an ordinary day
An orphan's life changes...
God sends them a second chance
Through you
