This last I was following the Compassion Blogging Though the Philippines. It made me want to sponsor another child. I really wish I could help them all. But I cant, and we are already sponsoring children though Gospel For Asia’s Bride of Hope. I got a letter from one of them today, Sabdhan is 13. He lives in India, and enjoys playing cricket and drawing. He was 6 when tsunami of 2004 hit. He was lucky, no one in his immediate family died.
Sabdhan wrote me extensively about how happy he was. His family had been so blessed by BOH’s generosity. They had given him a towel. He went on to expound how useful it was.
As I read, I tried to imagine being that happy over a towel. Off the top of my head, I have probably close to 2.5 dozen bath and hand towels. Not to mention a drawer stuffed full of dish towels. And I never once thought of them as a blessing.
I am so glad that I have been able to make a difference in his life. And that through Bridge of Hope, he gets to hear the gospel.
