116 – How To Support Adoptive Parents: Biblical Encouragement and Prayer

Do you know an adoptive parent who is heartbroken? Feeling overwhelmed? Maybe this person can’t think straight, or maybe they are struggling with their faith. They might even feel lost, lonely, and afraid. Do you want to know how you can encourage this person? May I suggest you say a prayer?

Hi Neighbor, 

In this episode of Anchors of Encouragement, I’ll share a powerful way to support adoptive parents who are feeling overwhelmed and struggling with their faith. We’ll do this by considering the song first introduced in Episode 114, “Brand New Day” by Lucy Thomas.

We’ll also consider the biblical encouragement provided by passages from Psalm 42 and the book of Lamentations.

Hope and healing are on the way.

Your Neighbor,
Tim

Brand New Day - Lucy Thomas - (Original Theme Song from Forthcoming TV Series)
Music - Anton Fauve Lyrics - Roger Ellory

Verse 1...
There are times your heart is broken

When the world just tears you down

And you lose all sense of reason

And your faith just can't be found

 

Verse 2...
When the clouds can get no darker

And the wind just blows so cold

You can know that there is hope now

And you'll feel it in your soul

 

Chorus...

So say a prayer for the lost and lonely

Say a prayer for those afraid

Let 'em know the dark is lifting

And tomorrow is a brand new day
