A year and a half ago, Joy shared this video with me. It was produced by her friend, Eric Ludy. It's extremely powerful. PLEASE watch it and think of what you know about Joha.
I have watched it dozens of times. My favorite parts are these.
"Heroes are made because they are moved. Not in their heads but in their hearts."
"Remember you call yourself my body? I'm not there except through you. Your hands, those are my hands. Your feet those are my feet. That heart, it's my heart. And if its not beating, then my heart is not beating on this Earth anymore. I work through my body. I am a Father tot he fatherless through my body. I rescue the weak and the vulnerable through YOU! And if you're not doing it no one is."
We have a "Hudson." Her name is Johanna. And while she is NOT, by God's grace, any longer wondering from where her next meal will come, she is apart from us. We want to take her back to school pictures on OUR front porch next year.
We have seen many "heroes" for her to this point and we are blessed beyond anything we could have expected. What a different journey this will be and how much we will learn about community and God's provision than if we had every penny sitting in an account already. Thank you.
Will you be a hero for her?
