I dreamt about Xiao Feng last night

We were in China–just Mark and me–and were needing to leave to come home.

We were at his orphanage in Xi’an. And, someone there who worked with Xiao Feng came out to talk to us about him. They said he needed some new medicine  and that he was anxious about having it.

Mark went into the room where he was laying in bed to be with him while I stayed with the orphanage staff. I don’t remember what we talked about, but we talked about the little boy.

Mark then came out and told me how anxious he thought Xiao Feng was.

So, I went to him.

I sat by his bed on the floor and just touched his face and head. He was awake at first and then fell asleep. Mark came in to gently tell me we needed to leave. I told him we’d leave the next day because I could not leave Xiao Xiao’s side until morning. Mark understood.

And, I just sat there and kept touching him warmly like I would one of my own children when they are sick or upset.

And, then I woke up.

Mark handed Lydia to me while he went to make her a bottle. And, I snuggled her close in our bed under lots of covers, and I thought about Xiao Feng.

I’ve had some families ask about him. I’ve sent his file to several people. But, I haven’t heard from anyone yet if God has called them to bring him home. As far as I know, he’s still waiting. He has probably seen a lot of children leave the orphanage to meet their families. I trust it will be his turn soon. This boy is ready to bless someone’s family.

I feel like he’s already blessed me.
