Ask to Receive

Matthew 7:7 (Jesus) "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door shall be opened to you. v8 For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. v9 Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? v10 Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? v11 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him?"

Beloved, there are so many needs of the people here in Kenya, and in other African countries, it is difficult for a person from a place like the USA to comprehend how the people manage to survive here.  The answer, of course, is this is all they know. They know the agony and the misery, but they don't have anything better to compare it to.  Their frame of reference and exposure to the outside world is quite limited.  Not so for missionaries.  We carry the burden of knowing everything in their life could be better; better education, housing, healthcare, security, service delivery. But for all of us there is one leveling event, Jesus Christ and Him crucified!  He is the hope for their misery as well as the peace to endure each day and live with joy and purpose.  What else can I ask of the Father in heaven for these people?  Gather the Outcasts Ministry is fertile soil in which you can give.  We are making a difference in the lives of many here in Kenya and all over East Africa.  We invite you to support the school children of Living Water Children's Home, we need $1,500 to get them all back in school this term.  Pray about your part in helping raise the standard for children of Kenya. Thank you for your prayers and support!
