The Lord has always kept on my heart the desire to help children here in the United States; I just didn’t know how. That is, I didn’t know how until I came across the Life Matters radio show!
I first heard the program, hosted by Mariah Wilde, founder of Family Link Kids, on KLGO out of Austin, Texas. Near the end of a program not long ago, I heard Mariah speak about Legacy Ranch,and I became excited about this visionary project that is coming to pass! At long last! I knew that the Lord had shown me a way to help children in His name right here, in my own “backyard.” Especially appealing to me is the prospect of siblings being together — siblings who may have otherwise been torn apart, leaving them to agonize about the care given to one another.
I love listening to Life Matters. Mariah has special guests on her show who are exciting to hear, and each one speaks to some aspect of their lives that ties in with the highly effective Family Link Kids program for children in foster/adoption situations. So many adults have huge hearts that are big enough to hold these precious children. The Family Link Kids program that Mariah initiated sees to it that adults are screened and provided with training so that children are placed in homes where they are wanted and where they can find love, acceptance, and a place of belonging in families built by God – in “Forever Families.” The enthusiasm is contagious, so when I hear about incredible opportunities for connection through Family Link Kids between adults and the children who need them, I always hear a joyful message of hope and healing.
