Starfish of Orphanage 42






Are you familiar with the Starfish Story? This story of a young man standing by the ocean side throwing starfish back into the water. An elderly gentleman approches him and asks him what was he doing and the young man replied throwing the starfish back into the water. The sun is up and the tide is going down surely they will die. The older gentleman comments "There are too many and you will never be able to get them all back in the water." The young man picks up a starfish and throws it back into the ocean and says "I made a difference for that one."

How many times have you had the opportunity to make a Starfish Story? If we look into our daily lifes we surely have all had the chance to help someone and make a difference in someway. Regardless of how insignificant it may have seemed to others.

I would like you to meet the Starfish of Orphange 42......

This six children are all looking to be saved from institutions and into a home safely where they belong.
Surely they all have a mom and dad out there that can rescue them from that sunrise. To give them the opportunity to live in a family just like the starfish the boy in the story rescued. Could this be you? Are you willing to make a difference for them?

Faith and Labor




 "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding." Proverbs 3:5 

  "If you can, all things are possible for one who believes." Mark 9:23

 "Therefore my beloved brothers, be stead fast, immovable, aways abounding in the work of the lord, knowing your labor is not in vain." 1 Corinthians 15:58


                                                                 
                            Could it be Kyle? who has been posted but never seen.




                                   Or  Sasha who is now a lost boy in urgent need.




Could it be Millie who distant look calls out to you.



 

Or Holly who happen to catch my attention tonight.

Whoever it may be that needs prayers tonight I will certainly be praying. Praying for these children who still do not have a family only us to show them to the world.

"Remembering before our God and Father your work of faith and labor of love and steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ." 1Thessalonians
