God can give you favor and wisdom in the middle of your crisis! “And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him, And delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and he made him governor...
Thank you for your prayers. Today, Jackson is smiling, doing so much better. Yesterday, after his dialysis appointment, he grew very sick in the night. God answers prayer! Believing the Lord for a new kidney for Jackson. God is a God of miracles! Bobby, Sherry, Jesse, and Kim
“In the Palms of His Hands.” Have you ever felt “far away” from God? There are times in our lives when God seems like He is a million miles away. When Bobby and I were preaching on the street corners of Merritt Island and Cocoa, Florida (years ago), he decided to go on a long...
Jackson is resting now. I went to check on him after about an hour and a half of vomiting and cries of pain. I found him asleep with his Bible by his side. Thank God for this moment of relief. He must have read some scripture to calm himself down. Jackson had dialysis this morning...
Yves Rose Bien Venue has been in the Anse-a-Veau prison for 17 months. She was arrested during a fight with a neighbor woman who was married to a policeman who had her put in jail. She’s never stood before a judge. She’s been in jail suffering away from her two children that she misses so...
“You’re Missing One Thing.” I always hear people talking about “how much they love the poor.” There are a “lot” of “extremely rich families” in Haiti. They live high, high up in the mountains in a private area. Their homes are much alike, or some even better, than some movie stars. They have the biggest,...
“Her children arise up, and call blessed; her husband also, and he shall praise her.” Proverbs 31:28 May God bless all the mothers today around the world! We remember the Haitian mothers today in Haiti who work very hard carrying heavy loads on their heads, always loving and protecting their children. I'm so thankful for Sherry, who...
Exceeding Abundantly… Have you ever asked the Lord to do something, and you find out that He has “gone the extra mile” and has given you “exceedingly abundantly” above what you asked for? When we live in an atmosphere of trusting God and believing what He said is true, we will see that God blesses...
Update on Jackson: Sherry and I arrived this afternoon from Haiti to visit with Jackson here in Santo Domingo. PTL! He is doing better, but still has a long way to go. He loves reading his Bible. We are thankful for his dialysis nurse, Phanise. Jesse and Kim Ostrander will be flying in tomorrow night...
As you have been seeing lately, last weekend there was a big, happy four-day-long festival at the Gwo Mache' Mirak (marketplace) in celebration of Labor and Agriculture Day (May Day) in Haiti. Most of Haiti's economy is based on agriculture, so this annual celebration is very important to the Haitian people. The Agricultural Training Center...
