The Gathering Place Where Family Matters

Do you feel like you are running low on human resources? Honestly, are some of the circumstances of your life overwhelming? Take heart.

Thanks for taking a moment to consider something about our “wherevers” and “whatevers!”

I will never forget one night in our couple’s devotions when it was Karen’s turn to pray. She took my hand and started to cry. Opening my eyes I saw her face in the soft light of our bedroom. “One more, Honey. What would you think?” she asked. Before I could say a word, “We have all of eternity ahead. But surely in all the children that are still available for adoption, there must be a terminally ill child that we can introduce to the Lord Jesus before he or she dies. Honey, just one more, and can we please adopt a terminally ill one?” she softly spoke as tears ran down her cheeks.

I’ve discovered a paragraph that Karen wrote about twenty years ago. I thought it was especially fitting for today.

What was good for the King, surely is good for us today as well.
