You may say it was just my present parents who changed my life, but I say it was God. My biological parents didn't care for me. Hey, I didn't even care for me because I didn't know who I was. God helped my foster family find me. God guided me to them. I even got a few extra siblings through it. But most of all, I got myself. I knew who I was and I loved me. I knew who my parents were and I love(d) them. If I hadn't been adopted I wouldn't be alive today. God has been at work in my life. Thank you God.

I just recently graduated Bible school (the school year was cancelled during spring break).

God had never spoken to me, and I doubted all the teachings I had been hearing in the year.

My classmates knew more than me and have had more God encounters than me.

I thought something was wrong with me; I felt so different.

I had talked to my mentor about it, and like everyone else, she told me to trust in Him and have faith.

One day while walking back to my room, along the path, a hummingbird flew next to me. I was overtaken by a feeling of serenity and pure joy. From a girl stuggling with depression, it's a moment I will never forget.

As soon as I got to my room, I contacted the directors wife and we sat down for some tea so I could tell her what had just happened. Now, everytime I see a hummingbird, I know it was sent for me to tell me I'm not alone.
