Dear Heavenly Father;
Your Son said;
“Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 19:14 ESV)
But how do we let them come to you…if there is no one to take them?
I thank you for the staff at Compassion International that make it possible for many children to come to you through their ministry. I also thank you for stirring the hearts of many that sponsor children—helping one child at a time to go to school and have healthy meals so that they may hear about you and your love for them. I also thank you that you’ve challenged me to be one of them.
Sponsoring Children is a wonderful blessing for me—as I am able to participate in your love for these children. By sponsoring a little girl in Thailand, our family provides food, clean water, education, and the opportunity to hear about your love for her.
I ask that you will stir the hearts of many more toward sponsoring a child. Pour out your love—through those of us who have plenty—to those who have little.
And in all things—I ask that you alone will receive all of the Honor and Glory as you work through us.
In You Service;
Keith
