God is bigger than the problem! “…If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.” (Matthew 17:20) Sometimes, our problems are big. Sometimes, they seem big as a mountain. Sometimes, we can only see the mountain. Let’s look past...
Zoey… She is a sweetie! She was “abandoned on the road” and left to die. Fortunately, God had better plans! We found her and took her into our orphanage. Zoey thinks she is “one of the older girls!” She is very mature, doesn’t play with dolls much, and wants to do “big girl things!” Her...
