Sunday (I had posted this incorrectly.)

“[God] speaks of future events

with as much certainty

as though they were already past.”

Young Texas Cousin’s Husband

My cousin’s husband served at the border for eight days and came home yesterday with various problems that led to medical tests and an overnight stay in the hospital.  Let’s pray his problem is easily corrected.

” By our house, there was lots of shooting at night and tanks and helicopters nearby. We didn’t have a place to hide so we just hid on the floor in my mom’s room by the bed. My mom would lay on the floor with us and read to us from the Bible and then we didn’t feel so scared because different stories in the Bible show how Jesus can protect us and if we are hurt He can heal us. But I kept wondering why everyone in the world didn’t care about us or what happened to us. When we got these gifts, I was so happy because I got many nice things. My mom said it showed that people in the world care about us and are thinking of us. And also Jesus cares about us all the time and wants us to be happy and feel safe wherever we are.”                                                                   – OCC shoebox recipient~
