The Blind Side

Michael Oher is 6'4" and weighs in at 310 pounds.

Our son is just a bit over 4 feet, and is hoping for a day when the scale hits 50 pounds.

So what do these two have in common? They were once orphans, but are now forged securely into a family that loves and supports them. The circumstances of their adoptions are as different as night and day, but that doesn't matter. And they aren't perfect, but no child is. But they are children who are worth the effort, the heartache, the ups and downs, the triumphs and trials.

And so are all the other children who are without a family right now. Please prayerfully consider how you can make a difference in the life of an orphan.

Oh, and in case you were wondering who Michael Oher is... he is the subject of the new movie The Blind Side. I encourage you to check out THIS SITE with comments by Steven Curtis Chapman and clips from the movie (thanks for sharing this site, Michelle!). I cannot wait to see this movie!
