Growing Up

I always wanted to…

Have it all together
Establish a career
Go back to school
Be financially stable

…first

However, don’t we all know by now God has other plans. I might have free will, but that doesn’t mean I’m always in control. Two days ago I saw the sweetest little face peering at me from the shoulder of another woman. He looked so peaceful, so tiny, so perfect. And I thought okay, I may not ever be ready, I may never have it all together, but this is something God put in my life for a reason. Not only can I give this child all the love I have but God has placed that desire in my heart. To pass on the immense love and grace God has given me, a purpose and a calling, onto another life.

Train s child in the way that he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.

Call and Response… See it.

Call and Response. Don’t wait. Go see this movie. This might be one of the most important films you’ll ever see. It is our call, and we all need to be the response.

It opened Friday in select cities. Atlanta is the number one city for child sex trafficking in the U.S…. and we had one of the worst showings of the weekend. While other (larger) cities were soldout, Atlanta’s attendance was mediocre, email me or leave me a comment if you live in the area and cannot afford to go. I will work it out for you. I will meet you there or I will order it and you can pick it up at will call. The proceeds are not going into people’s pockets, they are going to save people, so don’t waste your time. This film will be out of theatres this weekend if there are not enough viewers. Please support it, and you are supporting the cause at the same time!

All in God’s love.

You had a little compassion… Gerry is sponsored!

    Name: Gerry Abao (PH6420076)  

Birthday: April 8, 2004    Age: 4

Gender: Male

Region:  Asia

Country:  Philippines

Program:  Child Integrated Development Center

Woo hoo!! It is Friday again. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite days on here. Today’s featured child is 4 year old Gerry. Gerry lives with his mother and father and is responsible for cleaning, errands, and taking care of the animals. His father is sometimes employed as a laborer and his mother stays at home. Gerry is not in school right now but he loves to sing, play with marbles, and swim. He attends Bible classes and church activities reguarly. Please pray for Gerry and think about making a difference in his life. For just a small amount per month (about a buck a day) he could know someone cares about him. We all take care of each other.

“Whatever you do to the least of these you do to me.”  -Jesus 

Pray about it, pray for Gerry, and think about the HUGE impact you could make. Gerry has been waiting longer than 6 months for a sponsor. It is so cool to have a relationship with a relationship through letters and pictures, even if it’s from afar. You can let him know that not only do you care, but Jesus cares too. That is all at once giving investment, encouragement, and love. Wow. It’s so cool to think about.
