The Value of a Child


Dear beloved:  Pic above;  left, children at revival in Malaba, Kenya; right, New Hope Preschool children with Chad
Genesis 1:26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." v27 So God made man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. v28 Then God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply, fill the earth and subdue it."
As we celebrate the sanctity of human life this week, let us reflect on the value of each and every person, born and unborn, who were created in the image of Almighty God their creator. How ironic that in African countries where I have preached, the people have very little money or material possessions, but they make room for many children in their families.  In America, where material wealth is abundant, we don't think we can afford children, and abort over a million children every year. What is the value, or worth, of a single human being?  Are they as valuable as a nicer house or car, or tickets to all the sporting events? Beloved, stand with Gather the Outcasts as we make a place for the unwanted, the orphans and outcasts of Kenya. May God bless you as you pray!
