Enjoy the notes below about and from two sponsored children in the Philippines.

November 2, 2014. Seek after a broad and deep baptism in wisdom. Wisdom is a worthy prize that will enrich your life both now and in the future. And as you gain wisdom, aggressively set your mind and heart on a life of understanding. Your pursuit of understanding will please the Lord. He will multiply your understanding as a reward for your hot pursuit of His wisdom. Your whole life will change for good.

Proverbs 2:2 (MSG) "Tune your ears to the world of wisdom; set your heart on a life of understanding." Ras Robinson

November 2, 2015. Situations appear better today. You are hoping that they really are better in reality, that nothing bad is hidden only to pop up later. You desire a smooth and easier time to come. Put all your hope and faith in Me. Walk slowly and easily, keeping your focus on Me and My goodness. Then you will see that for which you have been longing. Most all of the bad times are over. There are good times ahead.

Philippians 3:15-16 (MSG) "So let's keep focused on that goal, those of us who want everything God has for us. If any of you have something else in mind, something less than total commitment, God will clear your blurred vision -- you'll see it yet! Now that we're on the right track, let's stay on it." Bev Robinson

November 2, 2015. Being one who enables others is an easy trap to fall into. You believe your intentions are correct and above board, yet you find yourself allowing certain individuals latitude that you don't allow others. It is a matter of control. Only I know the full parameters of what is going on. Practice the art of releasing individuals into My care. Release people gently. Learn how to care for others without supporting unhealthy habits.

Matthew 9:36 (NIV) "When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd." Kevin Robinson

Ministry to Children in the Philippines

Christian (age 14) is a quiet boy, but also has a good sense of humor and enjoys telling jokes. He takes his school subjects seriously, especially math. He loves playing basketball and wants to be a PBA (Philippines Basketball Assoc.) or even NBA player someday. He is in 9th grade and wants to study engineering when he goes to college. He is doing his best to be a good and responsible son.

Here is a note recently received from Christian. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you until the last breath I could give. I am glad to say that I am fine now, but I was sick for 3 days. I still went to school because it was our 2nd periodical test. I did not let the sickness destroy my confidence. God bless you and may God continue to give blessings to you until the last of your life.

Claire (age 15) was only 7 years old when her mother left her father and the children and went with another man. Her father is an elderly farmer and they are very poor - there is not even electricity in the home. She has been an honor student since 1st Grade. With an education, she will be a success in life. She is currently in 8th grade, likes math and wants to be a doctor. Thank you, sponsor, for the help for her.

Here is a note from Claire: Dear Sponsor, In spite of my schedule, I am thankful to God that I can still do my responsibilities as a daughter to God, to my parents and to you. We are going to have a second quarterly test tomorrow (Oct 26). I am confident that He will guide me. Of course, I am studying real hard to attain the best scores. Wish me luck! Thank you for your support. You are treasured in my heart. I am praying for your good. I hope you will never be tired of inspiring and helping students like me. Thank you once again and have a nice day!
