He responds to your prayers....

Our God is faithful and He tell us when two or more join together in prayer, He hears, He responds to all that is requested in His will. Today when I went to pickup the kids from Rodolfo Rojas I was met by Gershon, Karen, Jesus, the mother, & step-father. Gershon told me he left all his school books at the house and wanted to know if he could get them. Of course, I said yes and we headed off to our house. At the house all three came inside while the parents waited outside giving us a chance to ask them how they were doing. They all said, "good". They told us they are living near the orphanage where we found them which is a tough neighborhood, but after one day they are all okay.

It is actually much better than we dared to hope for....the parents are going to keep Karen & Gershon in school which means they will see the other kids daily, except for Fabi & Mauricio. When I asked Gershon if he read the Bible he said, "yes" and he told me this morning when he got up Karen was reading the Bible to her mother!!! Isn't that awesome. We told Karen God was sending her into darkness so she could become the light to lead her parents to know Christ as she knows him and she's already starting!!!

Once outside the mother asked if they could come and visit if they decided they wanted to....trying not to literally jump with glee, I said, "of course".

So, God is working His plan; it's not ours (we would keep them w/us), but He showed us enough of it today to give us ....and you, a great sigh of relief!

  2. Wouldn't it be great if God used the children to lead their parents to know our Lord and Savior?
