The Way You Can Help Kenyan Orphans

By Marcie Goodman


The number of children who have no mothers and fathers in Kenya currently is more than the actual figure about five year back. A large number of Kenyan Orphans are neglected, abused and abandoned and this is actually something that has made most of them lose hope for the future. The question that most believers are seeking answers to is not whether to help these children but how to do exactly that.

Before you decide to take part in this ideal mission, you must search your heart. You may need to offer prayers to God to help you know whether you can actually help or it is just a feeling within you. There are ways a believer can approach this matter and the ideas below can help you get started.

Pray to God about these children, that He would give them an ability to survive through the hard times. Most of them always go to sleep wondering if there is a place in this world where they belong. Pray to God, who knows the plans He has for His children, to offer them a forever long and kind family, the kind of family that will accept them and care for them.

There is a lot you will need to learn about the relationship between God and the children who are fatherless. Take a moment to read the word of God to learn what God says concerning the fatherless and the plans that He has for humankind. Remember to ask God to help you know how can contribute in relating and helping children who have no fathers and mothers.

Remember that the heart of God Himself is opened to the fatherless and He might be calling you do open your heart to welcome children who have no families to call their own. You may therefore need to help the church to cultivate a culture where they give support to children to make them feel they are welcome. You may also create a climate in your family where you can give moral and life support to a child.

It is not always going to be easy for people to take care of children who are not their own. It rather needs constant prayer and dedication because this is work done from the heart. You have to take the chance to encourage foster families to keep taking care of the children because they are helping in the work of God, especially in the preservation of his creation.

If you are going to adopt a child, make sure you ask for directions from God. It is not easy to take in a child in your home if you are not sure you are going to take care of them. Even if you are still sure you can, pray about it.

Always give words of encouragement to people who are helping to Kenyan Orphans. There are times when they may face crisis and fail to handle the children in the right way, but that does not mean that they will fail. Perhaps a word of encouragement is all they need to get going.
