When all odds are against you! While David and his men were out, his enemy came into his city of Ziklag and took all the women, sons, and daughters as captives. Not only this but burned the city with fire!! When David returned, all the people that were with him lifted up their voices and...
I just got a faint call from Bobby to say that all the internet is down once again in Haiti. No fuel is available to run the generators for the cell towers which provide the inter-service. We are trying to buy what fuel we can on the “black market” because there has been no regular...
This day belongs to the Lord! “This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24 The Lord made this day! I will not fear or doubt! The Lord will put us on top! Today is Friday. God made this day! The best is yet to come! Bobby...
"Ti David" (Little David) is a tough little kid, but he is so, so sweet!!! He was the "seventh child" born into a poor family who could not care for him. A kind neighbor had taken him in, but after a while with the cost of milk, diapers, etc., she could no longer afford him....
PTL! Our Internet just came back up. It may go off again at anytime. We have our generator back on and all the dirty diesel cleaned out. Our Haitian son Stanley and staff went to buy some black market diesel for $10.00 per gallon. We are buying 800 gallons. We can only buy so much...
The people of Haiti are in an urgent situation. The gangs have made normal commerce impossible and everyday life dangerous. The food shortages have been exacerbated by the drought and each additional disaster that strikes the island. These children have no expectation of having food every day, no hope of decent clothing or an education....
“Keep Your Eyes on the Prize.” Has God ever promised you something that has not come to pass? The important thing is that we never have “broken focus.” We will often be distracted by things behind us and on the left and the right. When you are driving a car, you cannot afford to be...
This cute 11-year-old has had a hard life. Her mother died when she was young, and her father had to borrow the money for her funeral. He borrowed the money from an evil man, who took all of his children (kidnapped them) until the father could pay the bill. The kidnapper never returned the children....
We just received a distressing call from Bobby and Sherry from the only cell phone they could find with any signal (it was one of the worker’s phones that just happened to work for a while). They have no internet anywhere in Fond Parisien, Haiti, nor do any of their personal phones work. Bobby desperately...
"Counting Hairs..." Just "how valuable" do you think you are to God? Apparently, "very valuable." When we wonder, "Does our Heavenly Father care?" we need to think about what Jesus said in Luke 12:7... "But even the very hairs of your head are numbered..." Now, just who wants to count "hairs?" We don't even do...
