What value life?
Mo is six, an ambassador……She puts back far more into society than she takes from it, as she entertains, laughs,sings,dances,jokes,brings people together…She has made me a better person.
Her sister writes” Mo, I love you so much and you are the best sister in the world and so precious to me.
You are so important to me and if you weren’t in the world my life wouldn’t be the same and that would be terrible. I love you so very, very, much and you mean everything to me. Your sister.”
(Mo (name changed) has Down’s Syndrome)
Agape Love
The Christian understands that God loves with an “Agape” love. Agape love is a deep love, a love seen in the way God gave his Son for all peoples, a love that seeks the welfare of all mankind, and seeks to do good to all men, friend and foe. Gods love is more than a ‘friendly’ God or ‘appreciative’ God.

A Boys Request
the boy said” when I was in the bookshop I prayed to God. I asked him to give me a study Bible. A year later, I got a set of books and the Tamil study Bible I prayed for was included! I couldn’t believe it.” (Open Doors)
What is faith??
Often we feel we need more faith. But Jesus said to his disciples a grain of mustard seed is the size of faith that is needed. This is because it is not faith that is the primary issue but what we have faith in. Tiny faith in a mighty God is as affective as great faith in a Mighty God. What may be different is the journey ie. a fearful journey or a journey of confidence. The mighty God remains the same.
Faith has to have an object or person to be effective. Large faith in thin ice will not be effective. Small faith in thick ice is better

Who will take care of them when you are gone?” Breaking down in tears, he went to the local pastor who shared te Gospel with him, and led him to Jesus. (OM Global)
