No matter what battle you are facing today, know this, “If God be for us, who can be against us?” Romans 8:31 The same one who opened up the Red Sea, fell the walls of Jericho, opened the eyes of the blind, and caused deaf to hear is the same one who is “for us!” Blessings, Sherry
This is one of our older girls, Widlene. She is doing “market” here at the orphanage.

Nelson is small but light on his feet! He does flips in the air and dives off of the top steps without thinking about it!! He loves soccer and is as fast as lightning!! It is amazing to me to think that just a few years ago he was sitting on the ground, in a poor...
HAITI UPDATE: Things are worse today than even yesterday. Please read my post from yesterday, if you haven't yet. Last night, in some locations, there was shooting throughout the night, burning buildings, roadblocks, and the list goes on. I just read that in downtown and other areas, the thugs are going on their motorcycles and setting...
The disciples told Jesus, we have a great multitude to feed, including women and children. “And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.” Matthew 14:17 – Maybe in your life today, you have very little. Let Jesus have it and He can multiply it many times over! After Jesus...
