Two promising young people, Jose and his sister Judy Ann, need a sponsor so they can stay in school and break the cycle of poverty into which they were born. See below.

April 10, 2015. Greater love. Good friends are not like apples falling from a tree. Once while on vacation we rented a house that had many apple trees. It was apple harvest season. One tree had branches covering our roof. Day and night, we heard the "thud" of apples landing on our roof. There were apples everywhere in the yard. We would forage for the very best apples. Really great apples are now our standard and choice. Greater love, Jesus declared, involves laying down your life for your friends. Are you a great apple for God?

 

John 15:13 (NASB)"Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends." Ras Robinson

April 10, 2015. Beloved, your challenges and problems have been the main things on your mind. Let Me be the main thing on your mind. Keeping Me and My ways on your mind brings praise and glory to Me. Keeping your challenges and problems on your mind in effect brings praise and glory to them. Make the choice, Beloved. Don't let your mind drift in the way of unbelief or distrust. Harness your mind, bringing it unto Me and My ways. My way is the way of peace, love, joy, security and multiplied blessings.

 

Romans 4:20 (AMP) "No unbelief or distrust made him waver (doubtingly question) concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong and was empowered by faith as he gave praise and glory to God," Bev Robinson

 


April 10, 2015. Be outlandish, bold, and strong. Take your faith walk seriously. For some reason you doubt whether the truth you see throughout the Bible can be applied to you. Excuses are made as to why you cannot believe. You think you are unworthy to receive blessings from Me in the natural and the supernatural. Nonsense, absolute nonsense. Be proactive instead of reactive. Pursue me with real desire and fixed attention. With full assurance, see healing and deliverance take place through your prayers. Expect signs and wonders to follow you daily.

 

James 5:16b-18 (NASB) "The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much. Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months. Then he prayed again, and the sky poured rain and the earth produced its fruit." Kevin Robinson

Ministry to Children in the Philippines

This is Jose, age 14. He and his sister, Judy Ann, age 16, have been sponsored for about 2 years. Unfortunately their sponsor is not able to continue to sponsor them. Their family is very poor. Their income comes from selling shells they pick up on the seashore. It is rarely enough to buy food for the day. The family of 6 lives in a small one-room house with no electricity and no running water. Without a sponsor, Jose and Judy Ann will not be able to go to school. There is not enough money for the expenses. With an education, they will be able to break the cycle of poverty into which they were born. Jose desires to finish high school and go to seaman school. If he can do that he will have a good income. Judy Ann wants to be a policewoman because she wants to protect people from harm. Would you pray and ask the Lord if He wants you to help these two young people and give them hope for the future?

God has blessed the vision of helping the poorest of the poor children in the Philippines to get an education. The Partners, Sponsors and Friends of this ministry are part of changing young lives. We are now working on the budget for the next school year which begins the first of June. We are asking God -- how many children this year?  

How many young lives do you want to touch?
