HE died so that I might LIVE!

Here is a beautiful example of Christ's love...

When you plant wheat you throw out seeds. But once the seed is in the ground it does grow. First the seed DIES. Then, after the seed dies, the plant starts to grow. So, the seed gives up its life so that more fruit can be grown. He gives up everything for the growth of more wheat.

Just as the wheat, Christ gave up His life for others! Before anything could grow, He first had to sacrifice Himself. Then, after He died, we could grow closer and closer to Him, and live ineternity with Him and His Father! He died so that we might live through Him and for Him. He died so that we could become fruitful for Him! What sacrifice of a King!

I know I am special to God! I am His beautiful Princess, saved in his arms!

"Most assuredly, I say to you,

unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone;

but if it dies, it produces much grain."

John 12:24

Little Eston

This is a beautiful family that lives in Kitgum, Uganda. They will soon be missionaries to the Acholi people, up in Northern Uganda. Zane and Summer McCourtney, so far, have 10 children, 2 biological and 8 adopted. They are close friends of mine and I always love to see what they are up to.

They have always taken a sad little child, malnourished, lonely, abandoned, sick , or abused, and brought them into a loving home to love on them and grow their physical body and their spiritual body all for God's glory. Each child has a miraculous story. But recently they found this young, lonely boy named Eston. He is said to be two years old, but maybe to bigger than an 18 month old. This boy NEEDS prayer. Please join me in praying for this child of God.

For now, he is living with the McCourtney family. And they are taking wonderful care of his physical and spiritual body. Keep little Eston in your prayers, please!

"...for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; i was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; i was in prison and you came to Me. Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? Or when did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?' And the King will answer and say to them, 'Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren you did it to Me.' "
Matthew 25:35-40
