See that you do not look down on one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven. What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off? And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he is happier about that one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander off. In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should be lost.
-Mathew 18:10-14
We proclaim Christ, admonishing and teaching these children with all wisdom, so that we may present all of these children perfect in Christ. To this end we labor, struggling with all His energy, which so powerfully works in us.
-Adaption of Colossians 1:28-29
Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.
-Proverbs 22:6
Answer me when I call to you, O my righteous God. Give me relief from my distress; be merciful to me and hear my prayer.
-Psalms 4:1
He will respond to the prayer of the destitute; he will not despise their plea.
-Psalms 102:17
All of the Amazima children have survived difficulty that I can't even imagine. They have witnessed their parents death, felt the pains of hunger, and often had no human comfort when they were scared and alone. Thankfully now they are learning to follow faithfully, pray earnestly, and seek the Lord in all they do. The truth that the Lord is teaching them will not only change their life here on earth, but more importantly guarantee them an eternity with our Father in heaven. I know the Lord is looking down on them guiding their steps, listening to their prayers, and rejoicing in their praise.
