This is a bit of a departure from what we usually place here...the greatness well worth it:)
Truly beautiful journeyers in Christ...they are that amazing despite their denials. Admittedly, when I heard how God was working in their lives, in regards to orphans I HAD to KNOW them!
The McB's are too humble to see how inspiring they are...to so many. It is easy to champion the cause of daddyless especially on Daddy Day...but to go with young family in tow, where and when God leads you to go and do?! Being both mommy and daddy to the parentless and often considered unreached people groups orphans due to HIV & AIDS...that's crazy...or is it?! How does anybody talk about HIV orphans much less advocate for them in church when mentioning brazier causes some to be off put...so naturally I thoroughly enjoy the fact that God has asked our church to buy underwear and braziers for those in need...not to mention the way my husband blushes when mentioning brazier at church:)
Here's the thing, they are regular folks. They remarkably just let God lead them to where the needs were and obeyed...and God is doing the remarkable through them...humbled by their obedience and awed by God's plan as it is unfolding bringing His beauty and Fatherly love to so many in desperate need.
Shameless plug because I write this blog and LOVE this family...
Please commit to pray over the McBrides as individuals and collectively with your own family as well as church family. Please consider making a financial commitment to them via Lifesong There is a direct link on the Zambia page to support them. Ask God to let you not only hear of who He is, but to see Him a la Job 42. There will be more details on ways to support this remarkable work in Zambia coming soon...will tease you with the idea of supporting their "new kiddos" as a family ministry.Will say, that indeed underwear and braziers are in need:)
When you think of Beautiful Things...remember The McBrides, Zambia and the Beauty that God is making already from the once thought ashes of these precious children's lives.
Educate. Equip. Edify. Encourage. Excite. Embrace (additional shameless plug for another incredible ministry for orphans...details to feature soon)
God is good! His works are Beautiful!!!
