A. Did you know adoption is God’s idea? Ephesians 1:5 says, "He predestined us to be adopted as his sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will." When you pray and ask Jesus into your heart, God adopts you into His family! It’s pretty special that you have an earthly example of God’s eternal plan.

Unfortunately, some kids just look for things about other people to make fun of. Next time they bring up the fact that you’re adopted, remind them how much your adoptive parents love you and remember how blessed you are to have a caring family.
