These are a few of the kids we love on each week! :-)
A few of the kids that come running out of their houses
when they see the ministry van coming down the street.
They love to stand and wave to us
...or call out to us. :-)
Then they come running down here:
[This is the place where we do our ministry in the village.]
This is the view down the street from us:
It's so great to be on these streets again!!!! :-)
I am often amazed at how God had this time picked out as
the perfect time for me to be here.
What a personal God I serve!!
I love how God is filling me with HIS LOVE for these kids!
In myself the dirt, the energy [and sometimes the naughtiness!], the lice,
the kids always jumping over me, and the smell of sweat
can get to be a little much!
But then God reminds me that that is exactly how I appear to Him!!
....and HE still loves ME!!!
So...
If an Almighty, Perfect God can love someone like me
---then surely I can love these kids who have no one else to love them!
These kids have no idea how to visualize how God loves them
---so, maybe in some small way I can show them a glimpse of God's love for them
......thru hugs, holding them, playing with them,
and just being their barang [friend]!!
That is my prayer.
Please join me in praying for these dear children!!
