You may remember how in a previous post I described the practice of spiritually adopting a child in danger of abortion. You may also recall how the first time I began this practice, without realizing it I began on a day that meant I would complete the devotion nine months later–on my own birthday.

Well, God’s Providence is still working because after I completed my previous spiritual adoption, I was about to begin anew with a different child, but for some reason I would often miss days and have to start over. Well, it wasn’t too long before I practically forgot about it.

Last night, though, it suddenly came to me while I was praying that I had been neglecting this practice for a long time and needed to start again. So, I decided that I would begin the practice again seriously last night.

Last night was July 2. Nine months later is April 2–my own birthday. It happened again!

I am firmly convinced that God is trying not only to teach me to pray for those children in danger of abortion but to teach me to have a close relationship with them.
