Tomorrow we will visit the children at the feeding program. There are a lot of thoughts that go through my mind about the street children there. I know many of them pray and ask God to help them out of their situation. Sometimes I wonder, why does it have to be like this for them? How can this be? But I know that God has given it to us (all of us) to be His ambassadors, the ones to do His will. If we are His body, He is the head, and we are the hands and feet. We must be the ones to bring good news to the hopeless. Some verses I read in Psalms 10 today gave expression to my feelings: “Arise, Lord! Lift up your hand, O God. Do not forget the helpless… But you O God, do see trouble and grief; you consider it and take it in hand. The victim commits himself to you; you are the helper of the fatherless… You hear, O Lord, the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and you listen to their cry, defending the fatherless and the oppressed, in order that man, who is of the earth, may terrify no more.”
I pray that we can make a difference to these children. That we can show them that their hope is not in vain, and that they are not forgotten by their God or by His people. I pray we can see a generation changed- families changed, lives changed.
Thanks for partnering with us & joining me in this prayer.
God Bless You,
Lisa
P.S. Mike is still working on securing paperwork required for the release of the container. We are allowed two weeks of “free” storage before the facility it is at will begin to charge us for it being there. It has been a week and a half now, and we hope and expect to have it taken care of before the two weeks has lapsed. You can pray with us for this as well!
