How many of us use so much energy trying to avoid problems, troubles and things we deem unpleasant, the truth is deep with in the soul of trouble there is a hidden growth hormone called character development and it will be a blessing for all of us if we embrace it willingly and honestly
When we embrace trouble honestly and with the right heart it then has a way of making us reach beyond our small, imposed limitations and propels us to a level of accomplishment in life we may not of thought possible. When accepted in honesty the thing it will do is get our eyes off our selves and seek out others who are far worse off than us.

Justice
For the Orphans that we are trying to reach, the most terrible poverty is loneliness and the feeling of being unloved.
Mother Teresa has been quoted as saying that If you can't feed a hundred people, then feed just one for it is not how much you do, but how much love you put into what you can do.
The people around us, near us, beside us at work or on the ferry or bus it is not enough to just reach into our wallets as good as that is, let us not be satisfied with just giving money. Money is not enough, what the poor around us need is our hearts to love them. So, let us spread our love His love everywhere we go and in every thing we do.

encourage yourself
If ever you need to encourage your self in this life of challenges and trials then let me point you to one of David's psalm.
In the 27th Psalm you will find all that you need to deal with life's pressures. David said that he would have lost heart, no doubt because of all of the pressures that he faced in His life, but instead of loosing heart he chose to believe. That is the key to turning things around in your life you have to make the choice to believe.
What did David choose to believe? He chose to believe that he would see the goodness of God in the land of the living. There it is for all of us to get hold of and see it in our lives, we have to choose to believe.
(Psalm 27:14 nkjv) Wait on the LORD; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the LORD!
