So today in my classes, three of my dear students blessed me in a way that chokes me up. Two brothers each handed me a dollar. Another student gave me a bag full of change she had lovingly gathered. They were so excited. They gave with such joy! It may not seem like much. A couple of dollars and a bit of change against 24,000 dollars.... a few loaves and fishes to feed thousands... But what precious gifts of faith. Given with such pleasure. Believing. Trusting. Knowing in their child-like faith that God can move mountains. I am humbled. Thank you John, Jason and Anne. Your faith inspires me.
I love this! All the little gifts add up!
ReplyDeleteI found your blog through reading the Machearns blog. As an adoptive parent I understand the big huge faith that it seems to take to hang tough for the duration, BUT I will say it will be one of the most unbelievable experiences of your life! We are along for our third adoption from Ukraine and what I ride it is! All God's best to you!
ReplyDeleteSo excited for you guys, and glad to hear that God is providing for your adoption... even if it's a little at a time! If you haven't read "Adopted For Life" by Russell D. Moore, get it now!
ReplyDeleteI am in the process of reading Adopted for Life now!! I love it!!
