They Chose Me- an Adoption video

This tender ballad about adoption will have you reaching for a kleenex, and hopefully will make you think about adoption in a whole new way. Inspired by an interview heard on the radio with Christian recording artist Mark Schultz, this heart-wrenching song was written by Debbie L. Rice. Debbie's father was adopted, and Debbie is also the mother of a little girl adopted from China.

this is exacty how i feel about the whole adoption things. if i could i would adopt the kids in the world so they wouldn't be so sad and feel abandoned. i have enough love to share for all the kids in need but just not the funds lol. you are amazing singers. but the one part of the song i dont get is why would god choose you as his own and put through all this heartache and torment if god loved you dont you think that he would have put you in a loving home instead of letting you be givin up????

@kelseycowen, Hi Kelsey! I can tell you have a big heart, and thank you for your beautiful words. Sometimes it is really hard to understand the mind of God. I just know that He is Good, and He loves us so much. He can see the 'big picture' of our lives, and knows what is right for us in the long run. My daughter was adopted from China, and although we may never know what her life may have been like if she had never been given up for adoption, we know she has a loving home now with us.

We have to trust that He is going to do what is best for us, no matter what the circumstances say. We may have to go through heartache and troubles, but at least we know we are never alone...He is always there for us. :)

what's the name of the song??

"They Chose Me"

adopted children are blessed children

God gave you to a couple who needed a child to be called a parent

and you are there a child who needed a parent to be called their son or daughter

and it makes a family

a reciprocal of love and care is the right formula

i'm learning russian right now (while earning my degree in social work) so that if i survive my current medical complications i can go to russia to work in the orphanages with a missionary group i know. and i plan on adopting from russia - loving that child NO MATTER WHAT.

@APhilCollinsFan

How did you try to adopt? Agencies may have different policies, and you can always try adopting through the state. There is certainly no legal age limit on how old a person can adopt.

I'm only twenty, but I hope to adopt some day, and more than just one. Not just a baby, I hope to adopt older children as well. It's just too sad that some stay in the orphanage their entire lives, they deserve so much more than that, they deserve to have just as much as any other child. My only fear is that a grown child, who already has his or her own opinions may not like me. But I guess that I'll just have to wait for the future to see how it all turns out.

@kelseycowen Hey. I'm adopted and i'm 16. I've been finding adoption hard and this song actually almost made me cry. Thank-you. this song kind of expresses how i feel towards adoption. I've been trying to express my feeling towards adoptiong; but i didn't know how or what to say or do; but this song pretty much explains it.

[RtoojBntOmha]

i wanna adopt a child when i grow up

[MegaHp27]

im adopted and this is beyond true we just wait for them to say you ginally have a family

[usaua5]

@kelseycowen Maybe the problem isn't God. He already told us to care for orphans. Maybe the problem is not enough are obeying Him & opening their homes.

YOU have to approve message...great way to keep the truth out, isnt it? LOL, abortion is legal and will stay legal because the truth is obvious, even with out you.
