"Being led by the spirit, even when it doesn't make sense…" (You're not going to believe this!) Maybe you have never heard of a "devotional" like this, but it happens to us all. Sometimes, when the Lord is leading us to do something, it doesn't make sense "in the natural." But to the Lord, it makes perfect sense… and a blessing...

A few weeks ago, we "graduated our first four babies" from our Malnutrition Center! You can see the big difference in Jenifer, Jeffrey, Wisley, and Woodmigen! They were in our Malnutrition Center for a little over two months in "in-patient" care. Then, they went home with special "milk," special "peanut butter," and other food items...

At 3:00 am, a pregnant woman arrived at our front gate with her husband. She was ready to give birth. Our security guard gently loaded her and her husband into the golf cart and carried them to our beautiful Birthing Center. She was checked in and taken to a delivery room. When we came in...
This morning I was out before 3:00 am, and I saw expecting mothers standing at the gate waiting to come in. I was very touched. Then at 6:30 am, we took a picture with some of the expecting mothers behind us. They were waiting to go in for classes and to have exams. One mother...
“The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me.” Psalm 138:8 Do you ever wonder how much time we spend “thinking that no one understands what we are going through,” or that “maybe the Lord has forgotten about us?” He said, “Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee.” Jeremiah 1:5 He knows the...
Little Kenzy 's mother died during childbirth. His father had just died before this... so their Haitian pastor brought Kenzy all the way down from the mountains of Demesseau to our place. Kenzy was malnourished and "sickly." As he grew, he was always "frail," and "sickly." He was slow to play with other children because he just did not...
