Life's a Journey.... here's a glimpse of ours.

..to be giving. I pull into countless parking lots and see the good people of salvation army ringing their bells in hope you will empty your pockets. Hoping to collect money for the needy. I do my part I gather my change and drop it in the red bucket but really is it enough? Is it enough to help the needy? I think we can all honestly answer "o, its not". Sure its enough to take the guilt away, its enough that we don't have to think about it anymore. We get to lay our heads down and sleep at night. Its not our burden, its not us in need or maybe it is and we feel "how can I help. I'm the one in need. I'm having a hard time paying my bills." My how disappointed our God must be. I won't go into all the materialistic things we "think" we need speech, you already know that talk. Nor do I want to hear how hard we work do we have the right to own such things. I just can't help thinking about all of the people truly in need and then think of all the people who truly can help. I heard of an article the other day where a reporter reported on the people who were always dressed for company. Yes, a reporter telling all of us who was ready to have the utmost important company to arrive at their door any minute. They were dressed in the highest fashion at any point in their day. Were talking about $1000 leggings!!! Now I know the average Joe isn't wearing $1000 leggings but really what has the world come to to think for one this would be important enough to even report about. And when did we begin to think we needed all this stuff. Tell you the truth it hasn't worked out real good for us. The average American is in debt up to their eye balls. Why? because we want this stuff. "WE" deserve it.
Want to know who we should be dressing for?  He is of the utmost important...God. You see recently someone in my family passed away, we weren't close but I can tell you many many loved her. Her death was unexpected, taken away by a fatal car accident. Our time is short here and God could be knocking at your door any minute. Are you dressed for Him? Have you sacrificed yourself for His will? Have you lived by His commands?

Meet Vika, her mommy here in America is working so hard to raise the nearly 33,000 to bring her home. Not because she wants another child to fill one of her wants, because she was called to take action. Because God asked her to step out in faith and rescue one of His earthly orphans.

Here is Brady:
He has already been transferred to an institution.


This is the shed where 20 or so boys get locked into to sit, or moan or rock. This is where Brady is. Fortunately for Brady his daddy and mommy heard the call. They know what they need to do and they are walking in obedience. Today Brady has a family working hard to get him out. Praise God! This is how the boys in his institution use the bathroom. Not because no one cares but because there is no running water. Who do you think cleans these? You don't want to guess, its the boys capable of doing it. Not good enough to be in society but they could work in the institutions. Tis the Season ah?



God is not here on earth except through you and me. Our hands are His hands, our feet our His feet if our heart is not beating for these orphans His is not.

This Season begin your journey of becoming His Hands and Feet and I do mean that literally. Sacrifice your wants for a child's needs.
Need to know how to do that? Need to know where to start? Start here and help an orphan you will never find a "want" more important than her needs. http://reecesrainbow.org/sponsorplumme
Sounds like a challenge ah? Take it how ever you want.
If your here and reading this your eyes have been opened. Do you know what that means? Proverbs 24:12
