When there is a break down of the family and the truth of God’s love is absent, people are hardened and the hearts no longer see what is real or what is necessary to love.
Career, money and things become priority while children and love are placed in the backroom to struggle and find happiness in a world void of what brings true happiness.Being loved and accepted and knowing that you belong and that people will always be there for you no matter what happens.
People look for peace and joy in a bottle of prescription drugs, a pipe full of a destructive substance, a strong drink, another person or thing. A career and money that will buy lots of power and things, but love will be lost.
How can we know what Love is when we never felt loved or wanted?
It’s time for the people to turn their hearts towards heaven and all that God has prepared for those that never knew love, but need it desperately!!

Response to an Article Trashing the Department of Child Safety Workers
As a volunteer for Childhelp, I helped care for the children removed from unsafe homes that were waiting for placements, and I can honestly say that the kids that I saw each day were not seized for reasons that were insignificant. It usually didn’t take any asking of why a kid was there, because it was clear by their appearance and behavior. I won’t say all of them, but the ones that seemed like they were okay, usually were there because the parents were in jail, and they had no where else to go.
I taught a boy how to walk that was almost 3 years old, because he was so neglected that his mother left him in his crib night and day. I worked with kids who were so traumatized that they would wake up screaming in sheer terror from the nightmares that haunted them from the abuse they suffered. There were kids that were as young as 6 that were taking care of their younger siblings all day and night. Infants wailing in pain from starvation upon arrival, and kids covered in lice and scabbies that were found without shoes in the middle of summer begging for food on the streets. Kids as young as 8 that were trying to take their own lives to escape the suffering in their homes.
The stories are endless and heartbreaking, so if you want to actually make a difference instead of just finger pointing and blaming DCS workers that are protecting innocent children, maybe you should first ask why these families are suffering so severely when there are so many people that could and should be helping.
People won’t help that struggling mother who is broken and addicted, or the woman with a black eye who is scared to death to tell anyone about the abuse, because she knows how severely she will be beat for it. Maybe consider the family that has nothing left and are living in a car or on the street?
Don’t blame and shame the ones that are helping and caring for the hurting kids. I have seen the workers at DCS show up at a single mothers house with furniture, clothes and food many times, because they pulled together and collected those things so children wouldn’t end up in DCS care.The workers are people who care about these children and their families, so please it is enough already on the passing the blame.
The blame goes to every person in this state who ignores their neighbors in need. Rise up and help the people around you, and you won’t need to worry about
the number of kids in care, because people will help each other instead of ignoring human lives who are being destroyed by evil.Love others and do good!
