We were suppose to be in Haiti taking a supporter who had funded the 5 health clinics FH runs in the PaP area. It was nice to watch the story of the orphan found. I will be preaching today in our small country church here in Eaton, Colorado - using thoughts that John presented at the Village Church a couple weeks ago (on suffering). I enjoy your blog Noel. My challenge for 2010 is to listen to all 242 sermons on Romans that John preached from 98-06. You can watch my progress on dmulhern.blogspot.com.

I remember being heart broken while working with the toddlers. I would pick one up that just wanted to be held, then there would be another at my feet who wanted to be held. So I would try to hold them both till my arms were exhausted. Then a third child would be crying at my feet wanting to be held, so I would put one of the ones I was holding down to pick up the new kid. The one I put down would then start to cry. I remember sitting on a roof in Port Au Prince later that day crying out to God saying "God, what can I do? There are too many kids here, and this is just one small island and one small building full of orphans. There are millions more around the world. These kids should be adopted! What do I do?!" I remember sitting there praying these words, then I felt a thought in my head stir, as though an answer from the Lord, "Go home Joseph." And I said, "Go home, that doesn't make much sense, what can I do at home. I want to stay here with these kids." The thought developed into the idea that if I go home I can teach others to be satisfied in God and thus, hopefully, find that God's will in their life will be to reach out and adopt some of these kids here in Haiti and elsewhere in the world. I join with you in your prayers, therefore, that God would open the hearts of people here in the states and elsewhere so that the ballooning amount of orphans in Haiti would find a loving home wherein they will have opportunity to be rich in the Lord.
