3 Things To Pray For Orphans--- 1. Pray that the Lord will wrap His arms of protection around them and guard them from those who seek evil. 2. Pray that God will provide each orphan with the nourishment and shelter he or she needs to survive....especially those who are living on the streets, in garbage dumps, etc. 3. Pray that the Lord will open the eyes of government leaders and officials to the needs of orphans so that many can be rescued, protected, cared for, adopted.
