I know that it will be special this year. And, as we are approaching the end of the year, I'm sure you're reflecting, just as I am, on the many things I have learned about joy. In all things, in every season, I am grateful for my Savior. This is joy - Jesus, Only You! <br /><br />GOD BLESS!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00840994989201507494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4464807136237482773.post-41400322931597013792014-11-24T16:10:10.932-06:002014-11-24T16:10:10.932-06:00Thank you for stopping by and for sharing, Sheila....Thank you for stopping by and for sharing, Sheila.

I started sponsoring a little boy at the end of the school year last year - and I'm having trouble keeping up with the extras - and how they need to be a couple of months ahead. I'm like you - I want to be all-in - but it's taking me some time to get the hang of it! I'm also a big believer that we need to be reaching out to those in our neighborhoods and schools with equal passion and commitment - and all-in - because there are so many school kids who need to know the love of our amazing God! Thank you, Beth - for your honesty! Serving - and learning to serve is never perfect - I think the key is to not give up!

But you know, I truly believe that the children we are blessed with are the ones we're supposed to have. I have two wonderful sons, and a new daughter-in-law - I am so very grateful for them.<br /><br />My hubby and I sponsor a child, Eric, in Rwanda, through World Vision. Sometimes I feel as if we haven't been diligent enough in our communication with him. But, I know that God takes our sometimes "meager" offerings and multiplies them in ways that we may never know until heaven. Remember what He did with a couple of fish and some bread!! I'm sure that you are making an impact on Jaqueline, far more than you realize.<br /><br />And, as you said, it's the act of obedience to do something for those less fortunate that's maybe the important part. I think of how Jesus said, "if you give a cup of water in my name"...I'm praying that somehow we continue to look for opportunities to spread His love to others.<br /><br />GOD BLESS!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00840994989201507494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4464807136237482773.post-11920992211114222502014-11-20T14:18:21.903-06:002014-11-20T14:18:21.903-06:00Wonderful post about Compassion (the organization)...Wonderful post about Compassion (the organization) and compassion that God placed in your heart to just do something.
