The story of Moses

The dogs barked relentlessly at the gate, it was night, cold and rainy, Mama Margaret really didn't want to get up, but the barking woke up the children and they urged her to go to the gate to see what's the matter. Street dogs were gathered at the front gate and one of them carrying a plastic bag in the mouth. After closer inspection Mama Margret saw that there was a tiny little baby in the bag. Its not clear where the dog found the bag, in the field, along the way, or even in front of the orphanage. The rain already filled the bag, and little Moses, as the children named him, was threaten with hypothermia. The umbilical cord was still attached, Moses was only hours old. Amazing how the dogs know were to bring the baby and how they saved his life. God worked out for Moses to live. Mama Margret brought him into the house, bathed him slowly in warm water and gave him some milk. He is a cute baby as you can see in the picture. An American couple is interested in adopting Moses, they will come this month to meet him. Hopefully Moses will have a bright future. This is only one story, each child has a story of their own, not all are as incredible then Moses, but all are filled with pain, rejection and suffering. Please keep praying for the children.
