I was just sitting here, eating lunch with my 2 beautiful kids, when the importance of what we are going to do in Africa struck me. We take it for granted so often that our kids will have the food, water, medicine and healthcare they need. What if I, as mom, was in a position where I could not provide these basic necessities for them because I myself was sick? My deepest prayer would be that someone would come along to care for my kids. I would pray for someone to come change their world. Well...som mom in Africa is praying that today. And, amazingly enough, God is going to let us be the answer to that prayer. I am overwhelmed at His grace in this moment. It is an awesome and humbling feeling to know that we get to fulfill His words when He said to take care of the orphans and the widows. Thank you for partnering with us to be God's answer to hopeless mom's and dad's in Africa. Please always be praying for the missionaries who are there day in and day out, being the answer. They give their lives to answer the cries of God's children. Pray that we will be able to refresh and assist those missionaries. Thank you again! (8 weeks and 2 days until Mission Africa takes flight!!!!!)
