This morning I woke up and took my lovely group to the airport, at 3:30am. By the time we got back to score, it was around 5:15 and I had to meet with a pastor named Aby at 6, so I figured if I went to sleep for 45 minutes, likelihood would be that I wouldn't wake up, period. Haha. Turne out Aby's apartment gate was locked, I didn't meet with him, but I spent some incredible time with the Lord.
It was incredible, complete solitude (with is unheard of here) in the dark, reading the truth. My heart just thirsted for the gospel and it was well worth the lack of sleep.
At 7, we were off to san pedro. Today at the daycare, they were doing the last day of a class for the teachers and staff to learn how to better encourage the kids, love them, and let them be kids. It was an INCREDIBLE class, I learned so much. I have the Manuel and can't wait to read it in more detail.
My day, other than that, was playing with beautiful children. A little girl was playing with my hair, rain inside, come back out with perfume on her hands and put it in my hair. It reminded me of the parable of the woman washing Jesus' feet with expensive perfume. (which I read this morning, mind you.) it almost brought me to tears, seeing her humbleness and love, it blew me away.
I played with my coco-loco aka wilmore, my little boy who I absolutely adore. He's attached to my hip, it's going to make leaving in august SO hard. And my beautiful Ellie who I've known the last three years. It's been such a great experience to see them grow and learn. They just make me so happy.
God is good, when there's NOTHING good in me. I was reminded of that today: He's worthy.
Keep me in your prayers, I need them!
