The Works of God

This week people will be gathering at Grace Church in Eden Prairie for the Christian Alliance for Orphans Summit VI.

I don’t really need another reason to love Just the Way I Am, but another delight embedded in those pages is seeing all the children who joined families through adoption.

Sometimes the families knew that the child they were welcoming into their families had a disability.  Sometimes they didn’t.  In either case, having a clear view of the sovereignty of God over all things provides the kind of hope that families need to persevere.

So I hope you will join me in praying for Summit VI this week.  What God is calling these people to do, and their churches, is incredible and wonderful and extremely difficult.

And God uses just those kinds of situations to demonstrate his extraordinary power and love!
