Discovering and understanding God's heart for the orphan and fatherless

Father to the Fatherless

The Mercedes Nobody Wanted

2/16/2017

​It wasn’t because it was old, irreparable, broken, or worthless.  In fact, it wasn’t even a car.
 
No.  The Mercedes I’m thinking of was a girl.  And this is her story.

Adopted As Sons and Daughters

11/15/2015

“But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons.  And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, ‘Abba! Father!’  So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God.”   
​
~ Galatians 4:4-7
This is the message of the gospel in a nutshell, that God sent His Son to redeem us so that we might become sons and daughters of the Most High God.  Wow!  What love!  What care!  What compassion!  Our response to such amazing love should be like the Apostle John who wrote,

“How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God!”

We Love Because He Fist Loved Us

11/8/2015

Orphans are not statistics.  They’re not merely by-products of war, famine, tragedy, or disaster.  They are children, created in the image of God and loved by Him, but are the victims of man’s heartbreaking brokenness.

​In The Least of These, I asked you what you were going to do now.  Now that you know that every orphan child’s name is Jesus; know that when you see their faces, you’re looking at the face of your Savior. You can’t walk away and claim ignorance because now you know that every needy child you receive is like receiving Christ, but everyone you reject is like rejecting your Creator and Redeemer.  So I ask you again, what are you going to do now that you know?  Will you give one of the least of these a cup of water, a decent meal, or protection against the elements in Jesus' name?​

The Least of These

11/3/2015

 
Picture
We have been given a divine mandate to care for orphans in their distress.  It is not the responsibility of humanitarian agencies, governments, or institutions, but Christ’s Church, as a whole and as individuals.  It is not something for someone else to do; it is a task WE must do.
