Beauty for Ashes

Wow. It's hard to believe that I've been here almost a month already! Things have been very busy and God is moving and working here in such awesome ways.  I'm sorry it's taken so long to update but I'll try to summarize everything.


Through this past month, the Lord is teaching me. I never thought I could learn so much in one month but I'm realizing more each day width, height, and depth of His love for every person on this earth.  I can see it all over the beautiful, innocent faces of the children at the Rescue Center Children's home.  Where you would expect to see such despair and pain, there is only joy and excitement for living.  Spending time with these kids each week has been teaching me that this joy which these kids have is what God wants for all of His children.  He wants us to have so much joy and delight in Him alone.

It's an understatement to say these kids are changing my life and an even greater understatement to say I'm simply loving every moment with them.
