PLEASE HELP ME FOR HER

You have a wonderful, loving heart friend.
It is a shame of all the different influences (worldly, and spiritually) that effects our lives to the measure that it does. It takes the goodness of God to bring people to HIM.
God is so good, and God is so faithful.
If you are willing to seek God whole heartily with a sincere heart. I believe in my heart God will help you.
Your love to help for another is a blessing to hear. Not just hearing your testimony, but Just imagine the impact your having on that child's life. You may have very well totally changed the destiny of that child's life because of your unselfish love. Love is an action. Love is something we choose to do on purpose.
God is faithful. I don't know how he may help you, but if you are willing to keep God first.
I know he shall open doors for you.
God is love, and desires us to love others. By doing so God will honor you for honoring him first, and for honoring him by loving that child as you choose to do.
Let me give you a brief testimony what God can do because I choose to live for God to honor him.
One time I was in church ( my family regularly attended, and was involved in)
I met up with my wife in the Fourier in the church one time. This was in December about 11 years ago, and keep in my that I lost my job in November, and had no money for Christmas for my family.
I walked up to my wife, and asked her what was wrong because she was appeared to be crying. She handed me a jar with angels on it that had a cork on top.
I opened it up, and guess what was in it.
$1000.00 dollars cash. God heard our pray, and provided for me, and my family for Christmas.
God is awesome. That is one of many examples.
God will bless you as you give your life to him for his divine glory my friend.
I thank God for you, and may God continue to bless you for your wonderful kindness, love, and compassion for others, and for that child.
God is sovereign, and our steps our ordered by HIM.
Maybe he placed that child in your path to hear this message to speak to you that shall forever change your life. God does arrange such moments.
Shalom, love, and blessings to you, and that little girl.
I pray also that God will move in the midst of the parents, and decree that the parents will not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord.
Please forward praise reports. I love to hear what God does for people.
In Christ,
Mike

Looking for Families Around Jackson, MI

I didn't mean the only reason we want to do this is for OUR children, we want to help our local neighbors most of all. Thank you.

Looking for Families Around Jackson, MI

A friend and I are trying to find families in the Jackson, MI area in need of clothes, toys and other items for Christmas/winter. We would like to do this ourselves with out donating to charities (we donate often), we would like to find a few families who we can personally (however discreetly) meet, it would be a good experience for our children to know giving is better than receiving. Thank you.

THE SALVATION ARMY ANGEL TREE PROGRAM

The Salvation Army's Angel Tree Program provides new clothing and/or toys for
children. A sponsoring company or corporation places a Christmas tree in a secure, high-pedestrian traffic area or lobby. The tree is decorated with numbered paper angel tags with the first name, age and gender of a child who will receive the gift. Contributors remove one or more tags from the tree and purchase appropriate gifts for the child or children described on the tags. The toys are then delivered to the unit and later picked up by the parent to distribute to the child/children on Christmas Day.  http://www.salvationarmyusa.org/

About murcog

I am trying to help my daughter find some way to give her beautifull little boys some kind of christmas. She is 27 years old and a mother to 3 active boys ages 5, 3, and 10 months. She works two parttime jobs and takes care of her boys on her own (she gets no help from the deadbeat dad) and is struggling to keep their apartment. She has actually been evicted from her apartment but begged the landlord to let them stay until the first of the year so they have a home at Christmas. Her father and I have been trying to help but our income has been cut in half because of cutbacks at work and after raising 4 kids we are now living day to day ourselves. If there is anyone who could help it would be so greatly appreciated. My e-mail is dcogoli@yahoo.com If you would like any further information. Thank you for your consideration.
