Episode 89: Heartwarming Miracle Blesses Children - with Lorrie Grant
Lorrie and her friend Jacki witnessed a precious miracle blessing that God performed for a group of children on their mission trip in Tecate, Mexico. A group from their church traveled and sponsored a birthday party for Jesus event complete with shoebox gifts, puppet shows, food, punch, birthday cake, and a craft. Lorrie and Jacki purchased 500 pieces of polaroid film per the church budget, and personally assembled the accompanying frame and decor in 500 plastic bags. The photo line seemed never ending and Lorrie was praying that each child waiting would get to have a coveted photo and craft. "Don't look up, just keep shooting," Jacki reassured Lorrie. The ending to this heartwarming story is something the two of them could not have imagined and will forever hold dear.
God LOVES children. He showed up quietly, yet undeniably, at the birthday party. "God is alive. God is real. He is still in the business of performing miracles!" - Lorrie Grant

“People were bringing little children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them, but the disciples rebuked them. When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.” And he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on them and blessed them.”
