Though my father and mother forsake me, the LORD will receive me.
Emilio Reyes, Vice President for Hispanic Ministries at American Bible Society, shares how after immigrating to the United States, he was given a Bible. He was encouraged to read it daily, and through it he learned how to raise a family and treat his wife.

Emilio, thanks for sharing your story! Clearly God used the Bible to guide, support and encourage you in huge ways!
Psalm 27:10 is such a powerful and important verse … thanks for reminding me of it! That verse (and others) communicates to me that God is my true Dad and Mom and loves me unconditionally and will never leave me — and that truth has been deeply healing and empowering for me.
Blessings to you, Emilio!
