These are pictures we took at an orphanage we visit to help. Our hearts break as we wipe dirt or dry vomit off their little bodies. Or unleash them from a chain holding them to the wall so they can’t move more than a foot away. Or tend their oozing infections in their mouths, feet or wherever. When I have one of these little ones near me all I feel is love and compassion. To tend them with the most Jesus love possible. We can’t go see them right now because of covid. I hate covid. But when I PRAY, I ASK GOD TO SHEILD THEIR MINDS AND HEARTS and to help them feel HIS LOVE regardless of what humans are doing. And I BELIEVE with ALL MY HEART that God answers and honors these prayers. For HIS heart breaks even more than mine.
So Christians please care! As a church we CAN make a difference. We can adopt. We can support financially. We can help physically. We can pray. We can advocate.
Or We can forget and look away.
My thoughts from China tonight.

The reading of a brother's inspiring devotion was preceded by me needing to change a filter in my coffee machine, which then percolated in my spirit (the pun was too good not to use!) to produce this post today.

Story Time With Dave The Dog, Blinded By The Light
In this episode, JoJo tells us about a guy called Paul who is blinded by the light – literally! Paul was, not to put too fine a point on it, quite a nasty man who was doing terrible things to the people he didn’t like and then – Dum, Dum, Dum - he changed…...
What on earth happened to Paul, where did this bright light come from, what will Paul do and more importantly what will Dave the Dog make of all this!?

Children copy their parents, maybe we should do the same with God?

Do we read our Bible or do we search it avidly?

Little Blessings Online, Season 5 Episode 7, Blinded by the Light!
In Season 5, Episode 7, of Little Blessings Online, JoJo and Andy B are looking cool in their shades as they focus on light!
Although, they have some problems at the start and need to use torches and fairy lights to see, it’s all good and we get to see Sunlight, Moonlight, Lightning and much, much more.

Art Time
For art time, JoJo gets messy with finger painting using lots of different colours – will she have enough fingers!
Make your very own light picture using your own fingerprints – how unique is that!

Endurance is your weekly spiritual workout, whether you think of yourself as a beginner, an intermediate, or advanced!
Explore with us as we wrap up this season with our special finale, ‘Finally, Brothers and Sisters’.
Go Deeper with Andy B, as he looks at 2 Corinthians 13:11, which explains that we need to grow up as Christians in maturity, love, peace, and in unity with other Believers.
Read and Remember:
Steven reminds us to keep training for Godliness, keep growing in our relationships with God, and keep growing in our faith.
Reflect and Respond:
Nathan encourages us to grow up as Christians in Jesus.
He challenges us to keep running the race, until we reach our goal – eternal life in Heaven.

In light of your podcast with @bethany when I stumbled on this I thought of you
This is pretty distressing reading and very blunt - "Men will be absent from church by 2028 at the current rate" and the departure of men is, according to statistics anyway, "speeding up"
It states Mentioned that men are increasingly not applying to be priests/vicars/ministers etc
Church attendance in the UK has dropped by 50% since 1950, and "has become a place by women for women"
Also, that two thirds of the UK Christian populations do not attend a church.........
Those few quotes made me re-read them several times!

I read this excellent short devotional today:
“Humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you” 1 Peter 5:6-7
Be full of confidence not in yourself or what you can do, but in the Lord and what He can do. Your life, once given to Him, is in His hands, not yours. Live in His strength, not yours. Depend on His resources, not your own.
“Do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward.” Hebrews 10:35.
How do you cast your care on Him?
Get out your “fishing pole of faith.”
Tie a hook to the line of your fishing pole.
Take all your cares and put them on a hook.
Cast the line as far as you can into the sea of God’s faithfulness.
Cut the line and leave them out there.
Take “I can’t” out of your vocabulary, and replace it with “God can!”
