Seth-thanks alot, this has really touched my heart knowing that 'you'are out there doing this true religion.we r doing something like that down here too. Seth - thank you for not just writing about this, but actually showing us by video and helping us see it even more. Reply Posted by Tammy Page on 11:07:22 PM I will look forward to reading more about your trip. What good works for His Kingdom! Powerful stuff!! What an experience for everyone and a great way to draw in the readers of your blog. Reply Posted by Crista Darr on 5:23:03 PM I'm inspired to do the same for the homeless and hurting in our community. I love the feet washing while praying such prayers. My children and I fall into that category.Īnd God calls us beloved too and rejoices over us with singing! He is my husband! He is father to my children. Women and children who have been abandoned by their husbands and fathers. We have so many spiritual widows and orphans all around us. Thanks for being the hands and feet of Jesus, Seth. May the seeds of encouragement and blessings for the widows and orphans, be nourished by the Lord himself! Is Labron James a sports figure? And did HE give the shoes or is it a type of shoe named after him like the Air Jordans? Reply Posted by Elysa MacLellan on 2:53:01 PM Praying for all those children and caretakers even now, I'll make sure that my friends and family who posted prayers see it. Thank you so much, Seth, for posting this. Reply Posted by Pat Burrows on 11:41:27 AM Now, through you and others, daily blogs are daily bread. I never really had a vision of Kingdom til Sarah introduced us to AIM via the World Race.

Im grateful that you had this opportunity to get yourself uplifted in the challenging places you allow yourself to be (geographically, spiritually, organizationally, personally.) You'll note in the video that I'm praying the prayer that Brooke wrote (#41).ġ3 Comments Reader Comments on "Your prayers for widows & orphans" If you have a friend that prayed one of the prayers we shared from the blog, please show them the video above. It meant so much to all involved and it gives me hope that the family of God is far more powerful than it realizes. What a marvelous thing to be a part of a blog community that cares enough to reach out like this. It was a moving moment (I'll post a video we took of it later).Īll in all I just want to say "thank you!" to those of you who helped make this miracle happen. I went to her new house and prayed a prayer that Megan, one of the Racers who cared for Moses, had written out for her. My favorite interaction of the day was with Baby Moses' mom - Philile. When word got out about the Labron James shoes we were handing out (we gave away thousands of dollars of donated new shoes), the teenagers began to press in more.

Many of the children grew exhausted and slept on the ground while waiting. We had a nurse's station there as well to tend to the various undoctored wounds we encountered along the way.Īlthough more than 50 of us washed feet, handed out shoes and prayed, all the individual attention we gave extended the process for about five hours in the blistering Swazi sun. We not only prayed your prayers, but our own as well. Widows and orphans from our eight care points (around 700 in all) lined up. We had 12 foot washing stations on that hot day in Nsoko. Rupert, had been widowed just three weeks earlier and took it upon herself to not only print them, but to pray over them, sometimes with tears. Later, when our vision trip participants arrived, Shawn had 116 of the prayers printed out, cut, and laminated. A few were even written in Siswati (the local language). Many of your prayers were profound and heartfelt. I didn't have the details worked out, but after landing in South Africa, when I got on line and checked, there were 101 prayers on the blog! What a thrill to see that number. I was tempted to hedge my bets by putting down a lower number. But how many to ask for? The number "100" popped into my head - a crazy number given the fact that the blog averages maybe five comments a day. I promised to pray the prayers over them when we arrived there. So, as I was leaving the next day for Africa, I felt led to ask you, my blog readers, to write down personal, individual prayers for the widows and orphans we'd be seeing in Swaziland. We see so much of it, we become desensitized. Too many of us feel impotent in the face of pain. It started out as a blog about pain, but by the time I'd finished writing, it had turned into a call to action.
