WORD OF THE DAY - Wednesday 18 November 2009

Nevertheless, the foundation of God stands firm, having this seal, “The Lord knows them that are his, and let everyone that names the name of Christ depart from iniquity. (2 Timothy 2:19)

Но твердое основание, заложенное Богом, непоколебимо. На нем стоит печать с надписью: "Господь знает своих" и: "Каждый, кто исповедует имя Господа, должен отвратиться от зла". (2-е Тимофею 2:19 Russian SZ)

Most Holy and Righteous God, our Compassionate and Forgiving Father in Heaven ~ Thank you for the tremendous joy that we experience on this new due that bursts wide with rich blessings to sustain us and provide hope. Give us wisdom and courage so that believers everywhere will live righteously before this evil world and at all times gladly confess that the reason for our joy is the anticipation of meeting our Lord Jesus Christ who will make certain that we overcome and receive eternal life. In the blessed name of Christ we pray, Amen.
Yesterday, we were able to make contact by telephone with the House of Babies where we had previously taken a large quantity of fresh apples that we bought at a local market. The picture is from our first get acquainted visit. This is a state funded institution that cares for infants and babies up to age three. After that they are moved to another state home unless they are adopted. We learned that they are currently not able to wash their flannel diapers since their old equipment is temporarily broken and waiting on repairs. They said they had to dip into their emergency stash of disposable diapers that are reserved for sick babies. When we called, they were completely out and she was so happy that we called at just this time. We went shopping and found some special deals on enough disposable diapers to last them a few days. They now have 103 babies at this place. We got to see them in the summer and saw so many precious children who have been given up by their parents, or the state saw fit to deny parental rights to the birth parents. That is where we plan to be going later this morning. We are very thankful for your prayers and the opportunity to share God's love.
