God Who Sees

To the God Who Sees

I am thankful in times when I can't see any further than my own hand...

That You are a God who sees each face.

"The eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him-

those who depend on His faithful love

to deliver them from death

and to keep them alive in famine."

Psalm 33:18-19

I am thankful that you see Nthiani in Kenya.

And that through Compassion

You reach out to touch each life that You see.

That Your hand goes further through those who are

Obedient to extend it.

Your love reaches further.

Your faithfulness stretches to the sky.

I am thankful that You see when I can't,

That You 'look down from heaven'.

Beautiful God Who saw fit to see me...

Thank you for loving each child.

Won't you join me in praying for each Compassion Child today?

There are still so many that need sponsors!

Be Changed

Happy September, sweet things! Life around here is (finally!) getting into a rhythym... Halle starts school tomorrow morning, and that is the last piece of the puzzle as far as things getting back to normal. I am a girl who loves a good schedule!



I wanted to post tonight something that I think is super important~ September is Blog Month for Compassion International, and they are trying to set a record for number of children sponsored in September by using bloggers to get the word out. I know that I have talked about Compassion before, and I cannot say enough how much I love what they do!!

Our family has sponsored a little boy named Nthiani in Kenya for the last six years. We made the decision to sponsor when Remy was first born- we loved the idea of Remy growing up with a 'brother'. Nthiani is truly a part of our family, and we cherish each photo and letter that he sends. Remy and Halle both love praying for him and his family, and they love making pictures and sending notes and stickers. It is such a privilege to be a part of his life and to work with Compassion to share Jesus in this way!

So I'm going to ask a favor of you today~ Would you go to the 'Sponsor a Child' page on Compassion's site today? Would you pray for the child featured there? Pray that they would be sponsored... that they would meet Jesus in a real way... that they would have their physical and spiritual needs met in a profound way today? Perhaps even pray that God would lead you to a child to sponsor?

You can see from the link what a difference $38 per month can make in the life of a child. And I guarantee that it will make a difference in your life too.
