I think "Its not fair I live so far away from them." but according to them this is all Gods plan. I sit here and can picture their faces and voices in my mind and it makes me cry. They are intoxicating and you can see the way God loves each and everyone of them in their eyes!!! I cant wait to share pictures and videos with you once I get back to the states. they just get it! They get what takes most of us a lifetime to realize!!! They praise the Lord and bring thanks to the Lord every minute of everyday!!!! They teach me what it means to be a Christian and have a "real, no questions asked" relationship with the Lord. THEY have sufffered so much, yet they are so happy! They our LOVED BY GOD so much that every move they make, or every breath they take is something to celebrate because its a gift from God. They are GODS LOVE! Most of them have no parents or a parent or parents that cant afford to take care of them, or in some circumstances sold by their parents. BECAUSE I dont know if I bring anything to the table compared to what these kids do to me.
#This little light of mine im gonna let it shine how to#
I dont really know how to explain it other than its funny the way people write on my facebook about I am so good for what I am doing, and that its so special to the kids that I am showing them Gods love, etc, etc. I am the most happiest when I am in Cambodia at New Life Orphanage. They get very emotional and my little Chhing said "I love you Nat" in between tears as I got on the bus. I know I will return again to see my kids, but its so hard leaving. Leaving the orphanage we harder this year than it was last year. internet has been hard to come by and I have been trying to sleep as much as possible. I am sorry I havent written in a few days. like it was God reminding me "everything will be alright Nat, I'm right here with you." It was a life awaking moment in the wake of missing the children of the orphanage watching this most amazing sunset. You cant see this anything close to this in America. I have never seen anything like it in my life. However, in the middle of all this we stopped the boat, floated in the middle of this huge lake (which resembled more of an ocean if you ask me) and watched the breathtaking red sun set over this beautiful country. It was worse poverty along the water than I had seen along the roads. I am talking these little shacks on the water, where people had nothing, kids were so objectified as they swam up to the docks and to our boat begging for money for their family, and so many of the people missing arms, or legs, or even eyes. We were in the middle of complete poverty. I also cant help to think about the sunset we watched the day after the leaving the kids sitting in the middle of the floating villages. As I sit here in the Seoul airport I miss my kids sooo much.
