Lucas Story
Posted by Andrew and Ruth Newlove in Blog on Aug 22, 2013
We were so blessed and stretched to look after Jerwin Lucas for a month, given to me in a Kainan…(roadside cafe)… thank you to all for your prayers for him please continue as God’s hand holds him. We were really honoured to name him and shower him with love at such a young age!
God gave me this scripture while he was with us,
” Take this child and nurse him for me and i will pay your wages.” Exodus 2:9
and i just was so blessed to know that we could love him for a time like with Moses’ mother. Some were afraid we would find the letting go hard… but loosing three of your own children prepares you for goodbyes…and we fully understand God’s Jochebed (Moses’ mother) calling on my life…I’ve known it since i was a young child so for Lucas to return to his Lola (Grandma) was not hard it was a blessing to know God is in control of everything.
The story of Moses people fits so perfect with Know More Tears Ministry.
“The king of Egypt said to the Hebrew midwives… if it is a boy, kill him; but if it is a girl, let her live.” The midwives, however, feared God and did not do what the king of Egypt had told them to do; they let the boys live… Because the midwives were God-fearing, God was good to them and gave them families of their own. And the Israelites continued to increase and become strong.” Exodus 1:15-20
“Lord make us more like these Midwives…
help us God to defy CULTURE to follow you;
as SO much of our culture is the opposite of what You are…”
CHOOSE LIFE… for you and the people around you.
