Well, as much as I love being an advocate, today is not one that I will remember fondly. Despite our efforts, James is still unsponsored and we will have to shred his file today.
While it is an amazing feeling to help find sponsors for kids, I must admit, it's more than a little devastating when you fail.
But I have to believe that God has a plan for little James. We're just not going to be the ones to see it come to be.
I have come to think of him as James with the too-big-shoes, as in his photo he is obviously wearing man-sized shoes because he has none. There are six kids in his family and his parents hearn about $3 a month. These are all great reasons to sponsor James, but there's something else about him that moves me. I think it's the expression on his face. Whatever the reason, I care a whole lot about James and I am going to keep praying for him long after I destroy his file. I hope you will too.
