Many will say with their mouths "Give us today our daily bread,"
but their hearts desire nothing less than excess and riches
But you know your Shepherd's voice
and believe Him at His word
when He says that he is sufficient, regardless of circumstance
"Jehovah Jireh, my provider," you say,
He has led me here, how could I doubt and think He would forsake me now?
For you, a heart of gratitude seems to be the only appropriate response
Some will look at you with eyes of pity
because your pockets are empty
but sweet brothers and sisters
you are the ones to be envied
for Christ has entrusted you with the invaluable
knowledge of Himself
You know our Savior in a way few ever will
for you recognize His hand
to be the hand that feeds you daily
He does not leave you lacking anything
Oh no, your souls have been filled
and overflow into the lives of those around you
The kingdom of heaven awaits you
May you continue to wake each day
and declare with your life
"The Lord is my chosen portion."
As you are loved, so love
Go in peace
"Give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread. Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say, "Who is the Lord?" Or I may become poor and steal and so dishonor the name of my God." Proverbs 30:8
"To You the helpless commits himself, You have been the helper of the fatherless." Psalm 10:14

Wonderfully expressed! The love of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and His heart for orphans overflows from your own. It is special how God has worked in you to become a voice for orphans. Awesome that you are serving Him wherever He leads. In reading your blog entries, I've been inspired and encouraged. God bless you in all you say and do for His glory, honor, and praise...
