So was I, but it wasn’t so bad. I woke up kind of emotional yesterday morning
and threw myself a little pity party.
Little did I know God had greater love in mind for me.
Victor asked me to lead him to a family in Graciano Sanchez
that we’re hoping to build a house for this spring. Ten people (three adults and seven kids) live
in this little garage door house that’s probably 10x15 feet with a little side porch
(only covered by two walls) area where some of the kids sleep. They really need a decent house. Anyways, I ended up staying and playing with
the girls for a little bit. They are all
SO incredibly precious. I reminded them
it was Valentine’s Day and told them how much I loved them and they kept telling
me how much they love me too.
Then that night at La Gloria, the kids and I talked about
Mark 12:30-31, how we are supposed to love God first and for most, but then we
are also commanded to love our neighbor.
So I had each of the kids make a special Valentine’s card for each of
the adults at church so that they would feel special, just like we feel special
when we get cards from our friends at school.
They all turned out so sweet! But
unfortunately it was a lot of work, so I was really busy and forgot to be
taking pictures of how they all turned out.
All in all, it was a wonderful Valentine’s day where I said
I love you many times and also heard I love you many times. I am so blessed.
