The Spirit of Man

 

Dear beloved: Pics, Hillary getting a nap; Everline, teaching youth at Children's Funday, Living Water Home

1 Thessalonians 5:23 Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.  Proverbs 20:27 The spirit of a man is the lamp of the Lord, searching all the inner depths of his heart. 

Beloved, the two pictures above tell the story of our passion for children at Living Water Home here in Kenya.  The little guy Hillary in the picture at left, is only two years of age. Already he has suffered much trauma in his short life, as he is an abandoned child. In the picture, he is at peace.  He just finished his lunch and is settled in for a nap, the concrete bed not withstanding.  The picture on the right is our teacher Everline, telling the children Bible stories at our Children's Funday.  We average about 125 children twice a month for the funday, it is a great outreach to all the Makunda village children, many are of other religions. The spirit of a man, even these small children, desires to hear and receive from God.  We are made in the image of God, so we desire to communicate and commune with our Maker. That desire transcends race, tribe, cultural tradition, and economic status.  That is how God speaks to man to save his soul. We invite you to partner with us at Gather the Outcasts Ministry, either a regular monthly donation, or a one time gift to help keep the Children's Home and other aspects of the ministry running.  When you lend to the poor, it is the Lord Himself who pays you back.  Pray about your part in helping us.  May God bless you as you pray!
