As I was riding in the bus from the airport I saw this 8yr old boy wondering on the main road in this city(Ouagadougou) going from car to scooter with a can asking for money. The first thing I saw in his eyes was "fatherless." I can't imagine my children wondering the streets of Fenton...you know?
My prayer is that God would use me these days that I am here to touch kids who need the Love of God.
Father use my hands.
I will be posting video tonight about our trip.
Today we are visiting some of the children that Compassion International sponsors and an orphanage in a small village. Thanks for your prayers.
quick note:
Burkina Faso is in the top 10 poorest nations in the world. And it is evident.

Isaiah 57:15 For thus says the high and exalted One who lives forever, whose name is Holy, "I dwell on a high and holy place, and also with the contrite and lowly of spirit in order to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite."
He dwells with the contrite and lowly of spirit. See Him in the eyes of the poor.

You know about 15 children very well that would be that fatherless boy. Yet people like the Greens Say, "Not anymore, not on my watch, come little children"
They take the child off the street and put them in a home, take the fatherless and gives them two fathers. Praise be to our God and Father.
