Intro to Ripple post

I wrote an intro to the post about Ripple Effects but for some strange reason the text didn't show up at the beginning of that post or a second one I tried. Here is what I said:

I am posting a guest post from a blog I follow followed by an article that is a continuation of the story. This man's story is an awesome account of God's grace and mercy and it is incredibly encouraging to me. The second article talks about sponsoring a child but the point for all of us is that doing anything for one orphan can be used by God to have ripple effects that last eternity.
