Great people, working to help a great cause.
We are a small blog…we are just one little family. We’re not the smartest
or most original people around. I’m probably not going to accomplish great,
renowned things that make me famous in this life.
I used to think I was too insignificant to really help anyone. There was a
time when I felt like I was unsuited for any kind of ministry at all. But last
summer, as I was in my car on an average day, a phrase popped into my head and
it’s never left. “Let’s do something good” repeats in my head a
lot. In the last year, I have felt that phrase pressing on my heart more and
more. I felt like the Lord was showing me that if I step forward, even in small
steps, with the faith that He will walk along with me then I can make the world
around me better.
Since then, I’ve started realizing that simple, little acts of love can
start ripples and affect people in ways that I would have never thought. There
are so many small ways that we can love and encourage the people around us
without tons of time or money, a huge gesture or a grand effort on our part. We
don’t need to be famous or powerful to leave behind a legacy of
encouragement. Smiling, saying hello, writing happy notes – all these
things are actions I can take even on the roughest, craziest day with the
girls. And somehow, any little effort I make always ends up refreshing my
spirit as well.
So this is our little attempt at doing something good in this space.
Today we have added this print to our shop.
It is an 8×10 pdf download of an original illustration that Zac created. We are
asking just $8 for the download and 100% will go to Compassion International
to help them in their mission to rescue children and their families from
poverty. We are hoping that you will join with us and give just a little so
that, together, we can share the blessings that we’ve been given with those who
are needing our care in this world. We can so easily reach out and uplift and
encourage these children who are struggling.
