Yesturday I was reminded of a childhood memory from when I was younger. There was an older women named Martha Barto. She was a women of God and she had a passion for the children of our Church (Southbrook Christian Church). She was also known as the gum lady. I would go up to her and kiss her cheek and she stated “I love you and Jesus loves you”. At the time I was focused on the piece of gum I received but thinking back I was always reminded of the love Jesus has for me. Then yesturday I was holding a little girl, my heart broke for her. I just wanted her to know the Lord along with all the other children at the Carepoints. Then the little girl kissed my cheek. Almost instatly I told her that I loved her and Jesus loved her. It was a special moment of flashback to my childhood.
As I am here is Swaziland my heart just breaks for these children. I long for them to have a relationship with the Lord. I want them to grow up and serve the Lord. I pray for their salvation and pray that they will truly know that the Lord loves them.
