Did you know that in India... many children in precious India do not have opportunity for education? Instead, many are kidnapped, maimed and sent to beg on the streets. The money that is collected by begging is taken by others (ie gang leaders). Missing children’ in India mostly end up as child beggars in big cities.
As a boy (age 9-12) in India, I recall well my own street times. The Lord protected, albeit with hidden memories and scars of my own.
Debbie and I have this glaring glance east. Our thoughts consider a glaring dance with those who suffer for a living in S Asia.
This faith walk has a sight toward the unseen world of need and suffering in S Asia. How can we all be flickering lights in a land as big and dark as she is? How then shall we live?
"Let your light so shine among men that they will see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven".

" ... how then shall we live?"
Amen, mi Hermano! I often ask the same question, even here in little ol' Weiser. I suppose it is a constant reminder of our need to keep short accounts; not only with our Great God, but with all mankind as well.
We pray for you all to have a 'smooth' transition next month to India. Indeed a dark part of the world.
While you are 'mourning' the move from Honduras, I look forward to the mission trip again next year with ever increasing anticipation and a longing in my heart for God's people there.
Adios, Amigos. Dios te bendiga.
My heart just breaks when I think of the fate of so many children in India.
My own two girls, now 11 and 7, were abandoned at the ages of 3 and 7 at a train station in New Delhi. When I think of what their life could have been I shudder - but for the grace of God!
I pray for your family as you prepare to go to live and love in India in Jesus' name. I will also pray for homeschool decisions - I can relate!
I have linked to your blog on my blog and will keep up with what is going on with your family and ministry.
