Central African Republic – Hope for the Future

There is no hiding from the fact that the Central African Republic (CAR) has been struggling with violence, pain and suffering for a long time now.   
Countries are advising their citizens against travelling to this country, and the daily news coverage about the country is more than enough to cause tender hearts to break and tears to flow.
Nevertheless, in 2016 the country elected a new president, Faustin Archange Touadera, who said, “We’re going to make CAR a United country, a country of peace, a country facing development.”  Additionally, the country still has a continuous supply of diamonds, uranium and land in its possession.

God's Care

In Paris, an 18-month-old baby boy, who was left in an apartment with his three-year-old sister while their parents went for a stroll, fell out of a window. The baby fell from the eighth floor. He fell through the window, bounced off the awning of a restaurant and landed in the arms of someone who was walking by. The baby did not seem to have suffered any physical injury. Wow!  Thank the Lord.
