Then (Hannah) made a vow and said, "Oh Lord of hosts, if you will indeed look on the affliction of your maidservant and remember me, and not forget your maidservant, but will give your maidservant a male child, then I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head," -1 Sam. 1:11.
There are millions of children in the world today who are involved in some affliction of sorts. Most of which have no adult relative caring for them. They are all left to the mercy of this world. A woman who has children in her care, whether biological or maternal, knows what it feels like for a child to not have anyone to turn to for care, love and protection.
This is why an appeal is going out to women all over the world to care for at least one child who is not a part of her family and needs a motherly love, care and protection. It is well known that not every women can take on such responsibilities but at least praying for these children will untie God's hands so He can do something to help. Remember God gave us dominion here and if we do not ask He is not at liberty to intervene in situations here.
This is an appeal to women, especially women with a motherly instinct. Come together in prayer today for the children. Be a "Rachel" today and cry out for the children, refuse to be comforted for the children's sake (Jer. 31:15; Matt.2:18).
Prayer: Father we join mothers all over the world in asking you to please intervene in children's lives today. Send someone to defend, help and love these children. Don't let these children hurt anymore we pray in Jesus' name, Amen.
Encouragement: Whatever you are able to do to help a child, please do not hesitate to do so. Please show unconditional love to a child today. Be a "mother."
