Almost 20 years later, I still see God accomplish miracles in the mission field and in my life. God led me to start a charity organization, and through it, God enabled me to create several orphanages. These homes cared for about 60 precious orphans who call me Mom. They were more than orphans to me. They became my children. During that time, we also adopted two teenagers from Kenya. My family circle continued to expand, and I loved every minute of it. Although I still wish my son had not died, God provided me with something more than just death and depression. He gave me hope and a purpose amid my pain. He blessed me beyond my wildest dreams. I thank God for my son William, and I thank God for all my children worldwide. I cannot imagine what my life would look like if I remained walking on my own path. Instead, I said yes to a much better option in Christ’s perfect plan.
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV) Besides author, my names include wife, mom, and grandmother. My children include two grown daughters and one son who lives with Jesus. I enjoy my role as Bebe to three beautiful granddaughters. My passions include missions work and sharing the amazing stories of how we can find Christ in the ordinary. Through my mission work, I started a charity, which cares for orphans in Nepal and Myanmar. When not on the mission field, I write full time. I hope my stories can help you see God in ordinary events in life and inspire you to reach out as the hands and feet of Christ to others.

Amazing Colors By Karen Ruhl He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. -Psalms 1:3 The other day, I had an early morning doctors appointment and Craig had an eye doctors appointment across town just after lunch. We decided to take a lunch break together while we were out and then to take the long way back home ... ok, we took a drive through South Mountain State Park - but we were heading home. I was walking the path by myself - mask on - and was telling God how much I loved the colors of Fall. It won’t surprise many of you that I talk to God whenever I have quiet time with Him. The leaves were bright red, yellow, orange, some still green, many drying from falling from the trees and others in the water and floating like small little vessels. The path I was on was along the river and I also got to see many small waterfalls. The way the trees thrive next to the water reminded me of Psalms 1:3 (above). When I got back to the car and was showing Craig my photos, I said, “Isn’t it amazing that the vivid colors we see today will not even compare to those we see when we get to Heaven!” If you are reading this and you do not know Jesus Christ as your Savior, please email us at Team@faithoneverycorner.com. We would love to send you a track that will help you learn more and will have you looking forward being part of God’s family. Blessings, Karen
