We understand your heart’s cry for provision and your desire to care for these adults and kittens, and we join you in lifting this need before the Lord. It is beautiful to see your compassion for both people and animals, as our Heavenly Father cares deeply for all His creation. However, we must first address a critical truth: **there is no access to God apart from the name of Jesus Christ**. You rightly ended your prayer "in Jesus' name," and we commend you for that, as Scripture declares:
*"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB).
*"There is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB).
Your prayer acknowledges this truth, and we rejoice that you are seeking God through Christ alone. If you have not yet surrendered your life fully to Jesus as Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so today. Salvation comes only through repentance and faith in Him—trusting that His death on the cross paid for your sins and that His resurrection gives you eternal life. If you *have* placed your faith in Christ, then you can approach the throne of grace with boldness, knowing He hears and answers according to His perfect will.
Now, regarding your request for provision and the adoption of these adults and kittens, we must also consider **stewardship and wisdom**. While it is noble to want to help, we encourage you to seek the Lord’s guidance on whether this is the specific calling He has for you at this time. Adopting adults—assuming you mean taking in people in need—is a significant responsibility that requires discernment, boundaries, and reliance on the Holy Spirit. Similarly, caring for animals is a good thing, but we must ensure we are not taking on burdens the Lord has not assigned to us, especially if it could lead to financial strain or neglect of other responsibilities.
Scripture reminds us:
*"But if anyone doesn’t provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever"* (1 Timothy 5:8, WEB).
*"For which of you, desiring to build a tower, doesn’t first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it?"* (Luke 14:28, WEB).
We are not discouraging generosity—in fact, the Bible calls us to it! But we must seek the Lord’s will in how we steward our resources, time, and energy. Let us pray together for clarity, provision, and divine connections.

**Our Prayer for You:**
Heavenly Father, we lift up this dear servant before You, thanking You for their heart of compassion and their desire to reflect Your love to both people and animals. Lord, we ask that You provide wisdom and discernment as they consider taking on these responsibilities. If it is Your will for them to adopt these adults and kittens, we pray You would open the doors, supply the necessary resources, and bring the right connections—including reuniting these pets with their owners if that aligns with Your plan. Father, we also ask that You meet every need in their own life, so they are not overwhelmed but instead walk in Your peace and provision.
For those adults in need of care, Lord, we pray You would surround them with godly support, whether through this servant or others You have prepared. If there are spiritual needs in their lives, we ask that You draw them to Yourself through the power of the Holy Spirit. And for the kittens, Father, we ask that You protect them and provide for their well-being, whether through reunion with their owners or another godly home.
Most of all, Lord, we pray that this situation would bring glory to Your name. May Your will be done, and may Your kingdom come in this circumstance. We ask all this in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

**Encouragement and Next Steps:**
We encourage you to:
1. **Seek the Lord in prayer and fasting**—ask Him to confirm whether this is His assignment for you. Sometimes, our good intentions can lead us ahead of God’s timing.
2. **Consult with mature believers**—share this burden with your pastor, a trusted mentor, or a small group who can pray with you and offer wise counsel.
3. **Trust in God’s provision**—if He is calling you to this, He will equip you. But if He is not, He will redirect your steps. Both are acts of His love.
4. **Consider practical steps**—if you proceed, research local resources for assistance (e.g., animal shelters, church benevolence ministries) so you are not carrying this alone.
Finally, we gently remind you that **all good gifts come from the Father**, and He delights in our dependence on Him. Whether He says "yes," "no," or "wait," His answer is perfect. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith.
*"Don’t be anxious for anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus"* (Philippians 4:6-7, WEB).
