Should he have kept his family in the USA so his daughter might be "discovered" by a Disney talent scout and grow up to be like Miley Cyrus? A drunk driver hit them on the interstate highway?
Life is full of various dangers, no matter where you live. Seek to be in God's will for you & your family. Talk it over with the entire family so that they all understand. Pray about it together.
During our time in Africa, our entire family was ambushed leading to one daughter developing a stress related heart condition (temporary), I was shot at a few more times, we had to pull a dozen Bot Fly maggots from under our 11 month old daughter's skin, several family members had malaria, several had hepatitis, the slums across the railroad tracks from us had outbreaks of cholera and bubonic plague and we had times when we could not buy milk, cheese, flour or corn meal in the shops.
Our four children are all between 34 and 40 now. Each have repeatedly thanked my wife & I, saying that growing up in Africa was one of the finest things that has ever happened to them.
Thank-you, God bless you!
