To every child who has graced my life and to those whose hand was held. Also, to the servants-those fellow warriors who extended their hands. Your stories are written forever on my heart. This is His love story to you.
I have watched millions of children come in and out of the foster care system. This story was born because I had witnessed so much pain. But I kept working because I had so much hope. And one day, a peacock really did come and stand outside of the door of the shelter where intake occurred.
I know a lot of foster parents and friends who share my burden and want every child to know that they are loved and to find their forever home. The purpose of this book is for healing. This is my response to all those children whose hearts were our purpose and to every foster parent and worker within the juvenile dependency system who refused to give up on our children. Those who came to work tired, who chose love. You are all as beautiful as that peacock. This book is to help you to connect and heal and to be a mirror so that anyone who feels broken can see themselves in the eyes of God.
