“For every day that there is sunshine, there will be days of rain, it's how we dance within them both that shows our love and pain. ”

We all know the saying "When it rains, it pours". Meaning that some days, weeks or months one thing after another seems to go wrong at every turn. Sometimes it seems that we will never see the sunny days or good days ever again. Most of us are fortunate to know that even though the days are not going well, we will have better days.

Unfortunately, for some, they have never known a good day like we have experienced- food always there to eat, clothing, good health, etc. The children in this post have faced one tragedy after another in their lives. One of the worst tragedies for them is still yet to happen, and they know the day is coming. Their days are limited, and as they wait to die, they are faced with death all around them. They are themselves suffering through horrible aches and pains.

To make matters worse, these children are suffering through even more than just aches and pains. They do not always get a chance to eat. They do not always get access to life saving medications. All of these things are luxuries that they just do not have access to.

There is no child in the world that should have to go through what they go through everyday!

I pray that God will lead you in the way you should go- whether it be speaking to friends and telling them about this desperate situation, or sponsoring one of these children yourself. They will not survive without you, but with you, they may live a long and relatively painless life. Equally as important as medicine and food, these children need LOVE. They need a life with purpose and a future. Please, don't turn away from them! They desperately need you! All of these children now have sponsors. If you would like to sponsor a child with a critical health need, send an e-mail to macandmic@gmail.com Thank you for your compassion!!
