Accumulated Failures

When my oldest was born,
I assumed I would make sure he
Memorized much scripture,
Prayed diligently for the lost,
Maybe even evangelized some.

Life happened.

I read today about two children who prayed
Every day
For a missionary and five villages
Who had yet to respond to the gospel.

Only five years later,
Those villages were transformed.

It took us five years just to build a house.

Maybe I have an idea for a New Year’s
Resolution.
