Thanks Show Hope

http://blog.showhope.org/2011/03/22/learning-to-trust-and-love/

“My husband and I write to you with the utmost appreciation, thanks and gratitude. We went forward on faith knowing that Zeke was meant to be our son and feeling strongly that the Lord was one the one who had orchestrated for him to be in our family. Zeke has a few more needs than we initially knew about but we are so happy that this boy is our son.




“Adopting a child who was four years old was different than adopting a younger baby. It has thrilled our hearts to be able to see so many of Zeke’s “firsts.” His first bite of ice cream, his first snow, his first real kiss back – all of these are such special moments to our family. We realize that affections from Zeke don’t come as they might from a baby simply repeating them back, but from him feeling trust and love enough to know it’s okay to give a kiss. He has made our lives better and we are thankful for the opportunity to teach him about our Lord who loves us even when times are tough. Thank you so much to the Show Hope sponsors who made this grant possible!”

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming, "Wow, what a ride!" Author unknown

I believe in Christianity as I believe that the Sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.
~C.S. Lewis

143,000,000 ORPHANS:

It is estimated that between 143,000,000 and 210,000,000 children are orphans. That’s at least 143 MILLION children in the world today. (Recent UNICEF report.)

To give you an idea of the enormity of this need, keep in mind that the approximate population of the US is 300,000,000; and the population of Russia is 141,800,000.)

There are more orphans in Sub-Sahara Africa than ALL of the children
in Denmark, Ireland, Norway, Canada, and Sweden – combined!
