Lewis Family

We were pretty happy with our lives, content with watching others do the Lords work and sending a check to support this or that! But I always admired the faith of others that seemed to be just a little more in Love with Jesus than I. I remember many times praying that Jesus would give me "That kind of Faith"! What I really imagined was Jesus kind of snapping his fingers and I’d awaken with a deeper Love and faith in Him. Silly me! I look back and realize that if Jesus were to do that there would have been no point in our creation in the first place. But the prayer was made and Jesus answered in His way. He started showing me things that would tug at my heart, and we would send a check. Then he started showing me things that would absolutely break my heart, and we would send a check. Then he dropped the bomb on me, he showed me something that need to be addressed and that a check would have no effect on, he showed me the children that live life without Love. After all, isn't our entire purpose to LOVE? It is our greatest Commandment! There are children in this world that will never know what Love is. They will never know the warmth of a hug or the security of knowing you have a family that you can fall back on when you’re hurt or lonely.

The Bible says: "Once your eyes are open you cannot pretend you don't know what to do". With the new found deeper Love for Jesus I couldn't imagine how I would be able to explain to Him that I did nothing to show Love to the Unloved!
