Lindsay and I are kind of amazed.
You see, we each had a burden to do something in honor of "our girls." I think that we each had the idea of providing another child's surgery in honor of the one that had changed our heart. But raising that kind of money is hard, if you're only one person.
So it was amazing that we each had the same idea, and now how that idea is coming to fruition.
Initially we weren't going to try to raise the full amount. It just seem to large. Raising this kind of money is hard for even the two of us. Thankfully, and I think that I speak for both of us here, but I've learned that when God gives someone a task, no matter how impossible it is, He will complete it.
And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ. Philippians 1:6
I've heard so many times that God does not call the equipped, He equips the called.
So, another week, another $2,000? I think yes!
Let's do it for Lydia, and the hope of a healthily beating heart. Daily I see her weak body struggle to thrive. She doesn't even have the strength to smile, it seems.
And let's do it for Tabitha, who's life is already a miracle as you will find out next week.
Thank you, so much.
Oh God, you made me cry with the "she doesn't even have the strength to smile" part!! That is so very sad when that happens to such a tiny and helpless child. May God help you raise all the money you need for these children.
