So I have been in the states for almost two weeks now. Time is going by so quickly. It has been a time of blessing. Time spent visiting churches and small groups. Being welcomed by so many and feeling loved. Indulging in a few of my favorite foods. Today I was able to enjoy the simple pleasure of mowing the grass. A first in quite some time.
Although I am here in Virginia, a large part of my heart remains in Guinea. Over there the opportunity to help others continues. Facial tumors are being removed, leaky bladders are being repaired, and heart and souls are being transformed by the love and compassion of God. It is Easter week. A time to reflect on Christ. On who he is, why he came, and what that means to my everday life. And what that means for yours as well. Who do you say he is?
I hope this week you spend some time answering those questions in your heart. Do you know how much his coming really meant. Do you know the transformation power that is available to us because of his choice? I pray you do. I know that today, in Guinea, because of Christ and he command to love others, there are some that do. Sometimes one of the stories here really just hits you a little harder than some of the others.
This is one of those stories. I am thankful for the video to help you see better than my words could. clink on the link below for a short video.
Thank you to all of you that help make this story possible .
