One Year Ago Today

One year ago today I had shared these sentiments from my heart with my Sole Hope supporters.  After a full day of Sole Hope meetings to improve our website, video, launch shoe sales in the U.S., and improve the overall impact of Sole Hope in the U.S. and abroad I am very aware of the strides toward HOPE that have been made in one year.  I am blown away when I think about how Sole Hope has touched and really changed the lives of hundreds already.  Without further delay, my reflection from last year.

I’m thinking of those babies tonight that go to sleep on a hard mud floor.  Hoping that because they know nothing different they will feel comfort and warmth tonight.

I’m thinking of those wives who have lost their one true love, who are now left to care for children…some that are not even their own.

I’m praying tonight for the little souls that will wake in the morning to a bright new sun, believing they will feel hope and happiness deep down in their hearts.

I’m thinking of my friend on the street who has found a home tonight.  As he settles into his new home with the help of his “brothers” and “sisters” this afternoon, I pray he will find peace in all circumstances.

I’m mourning the loss of the two children that slept securely upstairs for half a year.  Desiring a new day for them tomorrow where they feel like they belong in their new home…where they feel loved.

Please don’t forget those who are out of your sight, they need YOU like you wouldn’t believe.
