Friday

So be careful how you live,

not as fools but as those who are wise.

Make the most of every opportunity

for doing good in these evil days.

Don’t act thoughtlessly,

but try to understand

what the Lord wants you to do.

~Ephesians 5:15-17 (NLT)~

“Let the little children come to Me,

and don’t stop them,

because the kingdom of God

belongs to such as these,”

Luke 18:16b

 

GOD PROVIDES FAMILY

Missionaries show the love of Jesus to lots of people, and they always want the people to learn as much as they can about the Bible. A missionary in Colombia told a mother and her 12-year-old boy about Jesus. Both of them became followers of Christ! In your church when someone accepts Jesus, don’t they get baptized, start going to Sunday School, and learn more about the Bible? Well, this mom and son didn’t get to stay around long enough to learn much. They had to travel to a big city because the 12-year-old was VERY sick. He has to have a liver transplant.

The mom and son went to the city where there was a good hospital. It was the right thing to do, but they didn’t know the city well and they didn’t have any family or friends there. The mom just moved in to the hospital with her son. God is so good. He gave them new friends-new Christian family. The missionary called some friends in the city. They are now taking care of things the mom and son need-they are helping them with things like food and they are teaching them more about Jesus and the Bible.

Please pray for the mother and the boy. They are still waiting for a new liver so the boy can have his surgery. Also pray for the boy’s 9-year-old sister who is staying back home with her grandmother. Thank God that we have Christian family no matter where we are.
