My heart is overflowing this morning with gratefulness for our Encouragement for Today readers. I'll have some official numbers from Compassion in a few days, but the response to the challenge was tremendous. Many of you initiated new sponsorships, but I got some unexpected responses, too. I had so many comments and emails telling me about the Compassion children that you are already sponsoring. Without fail, we all feel that these children are part of our family. Just like me, you're amazed at how God's blessings flow back to us when we give.
I was also inspired to read your comments and emails about other ways that God has called you to give. Adoption, foster care and elder care are other ways that our readers are stoking hope in the hearts of those in need.
Thank you so much for sharing from the overflow of your hearts. God is so good--all the time!

Amy, Thank you for your visit that truly humbles me like when Van came last week! I appreciate that you allowed me the privilege to share your Encouragement P31 Devotional and I linked your name to the Challenge so most readers will miss this GREAT NEWS! When I saw your name, I noticed it was not linked to your blog so I linked it to Sept. 3rd post!God bless you and COMPASSION...may this just be a start in many joining in this.
Amy,
Know that I continue to pray for you and your extended family during this difficult time and as you minister to them.
Love you swweteset friend,
Zoe
