Sad News

Aug 20 2012 · 0 comments · Projects

I am grieved…

I am grieved by the news we received from one of our sponsored orphanages in Africa… One of these little orphans has died from malaria from a mosquito bite.

I am ashamed by the fact that this orphanage lacked the funds to provide what should be basic medicine and we were unable to assist.

Please pray for the orphans, they have basic needs both spiritual and physical that are not yet met.

I am ashamed…

I’m ashamed that I went to a movie last week and spent my $10.50 when that same money could literally provide almost two orphans with vaccine against malaria, I’m ashamed that I pay to leave lights on when I don’t need them, I’m ashamed that when I say I live and breath to help the helpless in the name of Jesus : My actions don’t really show it. I’m NOT ashamed of my God, I’m not ashamed of the Body of Christ : Although it does need a re-focusing in America for sure.

 I am hopeful…

I am hopeful that God will provide and that This sweet boys life will not be for nothing. May it motivate us to act, may it motivate us to press in and grow deeper in our walk with Christ.

I am advocating…

Please do not get me wrong; I’m not advocating living like an orphan so every dollar can go to charity. I AM advocating making an actual sacrifice to help those less fortunate. I AM advocating making a difference in the world for better. I AM advocating leaving a living legacy behind. Maybe loosing a little of our comfort that we love so much (myself included).

 

If you are led to Give please do so : Please do pray for these orphans and for us as we walk out what God has called us to do.
