The First Thing you Notice
The First Thing you Notice
is their huge eyes , filled with hope and aspiration . Their eyes are shining like the morning stars . You are so drawn to their huge smiles , spanning from one ear to the other . You would want to adopt all of them into your family today . They are the children of India .
Hanhee Kim World Mission Center has been praying for the children of India for a long time . We waited over ten years for the guidance and leadership of the Holy Spirit . It is our motto that we will always follow a half step behind the Holy Spirit . And our God answered our prayers and opened the door to India in 2016 . India is located in the Southern part of Asia . It has the second highest population after China , and their land mass is the 7th largest in the world . It shares its borders with China and Nepal to the north , Pakistan to the West , Myanmar to the East and the Indian Ocean to the south . New Delhi is the capital city . The Thar Dessert , also known as the Great Indian Desert , is an arid region in the west of India . The great Himalayas is to the north of India .
Our God has led us to the region of Hyderabad , which is located in the central part of the eastern coastal area of India and to a young pastor named Samuel Abraham .
Pastor Samuel is a second-generation pastor . His father was a Hindu , but one day Jesus met him personally . Pastor Samuel gave his life to Christ and served His kingdom as a pastor . But when Pastor Samuel was 14 years old , his father was called to be with the Lord . Fortunately , Pastor Samuel had a praying mother who encouraged him to be a secondgeneration pastor .
Now , Pastor Samuel is continuing the legacy of pastoring in his hometown . He is tirelessly working for the poor children . He got married not too long ago and had his first child . Now , he has 21 children . That ’ s right , he is also taking care of 20 orphans at his house .
In his tiny house , he has been supporting 20 orphans with his young wife . He needed an orphanage and this emptied his savings account . Unfortunately , his funds ran out as he barely finished the flooring of the orphanage . All the boys are sleeping on the floor of the church since his house is way too small to accommodate them all . Now , he and his wife are expecting their second child at any time . ( Before the printing of this magazine , they had their second child ). God ’ s timing is so perfect . He has never been late . Now , we understand why He waited this long to open the door for us to India . Our God has used a sponsor church in Oklahoma to open our eyes to see the need for the orphanage . Then , He inspired another sponsor to provide the funds to finish the orphanage building . We will see the beautiful orphanage in Hyderabad and our new ministry in the heart of India will begin soon .
Among many of the precious children , with shining big eyes and beautiful smiles , most are suffering without food to eat , clothes to wear , a house to live in and parents to love them . Our Father in heaven wants to comfort and heal their wounded hearts and bodies . Abba Father wants to transform their lives from children of hopelessness to the children of Jesus . And He is asking us to become the parents they never had .
Holy Spirit is leading us to the heart of the Indian children . Won ’ t you join us ? Will you help them receive His kingdom into their hearts , so that their names will be written in the book of life in His kingdom ? You can put the biggest smile on their faces and they will do the same for you ! www . coj . org 9
