What a great day this has been! Be looking this afternoon for some pictures like you’ve never seen before! They will make you laugh and cry at the same time. If you want real joy in your life, help someone who’s poor. You may be the “only Jesus” they will ever see. The poor must...
God honors faithfulness. “Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.” Matthew 25: 21 God has not called us to success, but to faithfulness.

"Grangou nan vant pa dous..." That's a Haitian Creole proverb that means "hunger in the stomach is not sweet."

It is a wonderful Sunday afternoon here in Haiti. Bobby and I are enjoying hearing the children singing, dancing, and praising the Lord, as they do in Haiti. They have their own "church service" on Sunday (inside the Love A Child Children's Home), due to coronavirus. The "calling of God," is something that we cannot explain....
