This is a baby room, and a relatively small one at that. Baby rooms can be huge, with very few workers. The babies spend all of their time in their cribs. When my pastor and his wife met their daughter, she was 10 months old. She weighed 10 pounds, could not sit up or stand up, and had the functioning of a newborn. She would obsessively watch her hands because that's the only entertainment she had for those first 10 months of her life.
In the United States, the majority of infants born and given up for adoption will find good homes. That does not mean all babies will wind up in a loving environment, but most will. In many foreign countries, this is not the case. "
For that reason, many people chose to adopt children from countries outside of the United States. It is not because they do not love America or American children, but because they know that these other babies need them.
And so, today, if I had we all had a million dollars a month we could completely eradicate the entire concept of these orphanages. They wouldn't have to exist. These children could all have a chance at life.
Check out this youtube link. It is not for the faint of heart. This is just 1/4 of the clips for the documentary "The Dying Rooms." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_Uq3z7KOjM
So what can you do? Many people do not have the means to go out and adopt a child from another country. But that doesn't mean you can't help. If you know someone who is adopting from another country, help them through prayers and financial support if possible. Pray for the children that they can find homes. Increase awareness so that people recognize that there is a problem out there and it needs to be solved. Remember, Jesus said "Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me." Matthew 25:40
Mark 10:14
But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
