Forgiveness


Dear beloved:  Pics, Bryan, one of our special needs children at Living Water; Front entrance to children's home
Mark 11:25 "And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive your trespasses. v26 But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses."  Matthew 18:21 Then Peter came to Him and said, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him, up to seven times?  v22 Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven."
Beloved, if we are to learn to love each other, we are going to have to learn to forgive each other. If you have anything against anyone,....but Lord!  Yes, this commandment goes deep into our hearts.  We like to justify our rage, our anger, our vengeance. The Lord says, "Let go, vengeance is mine, judgment is mine."  At Living Water Children's home, we are teaching the children to love and forgive.  These children have been rejected and abandoned, it will be very easy for them to grow up bitter and and pity themselves. We are teaching them to be conquerors, by the name of Jesus and in His power.  If you would like to help support these children, we have a sponsorship program set up to insure their basic needs are met. These needs include food, clothing, medical supplies, and staff for their care.  Pray about your part in helping these children attain the destiny God has for them. Email me for details.  May God bless you as you pray!

God is Love


Dear beloved:  Pics, Paul working on the chicken house; children learning at Living Water Children's centre
1 John 4:9  In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. v11 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. v11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 
Beloved, can we learn to love one another?  This is a command from the Lord, that we love the Lord with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength, and that we love our neighbor as we love ourself.  This is not an easy command to follow, even the first family had to deal with murder when Cain rose up and killed Abel. But when we focus on the cross and the love that Jesus has for every person in the world, we have faith that by the supernatural love of God within us, we can learn to love each other.  One of the ways to show that love is to reach out and care for those less fortunate than yourself. At Living Water Children's Home, we are providing a place of refuge for those children who have been rejected, abandoned, or their close family members have died.  It is a joy to see their faces shine as they talk about going back to school, and the good food they are receiving.  Would you join us in taking care of the precious children?  Your partnership supplies food, clothing, medical needs, and school fees, as well as the staff needed to house and care for them. Contact me for more information on sponsoring a child.  May God bless you as you pray!
