Laughter of A Child... that’s the most amazing sound ever!


Today was slow at the donation center, so it was an amazing day to fellowship with some of the other volunteers and just love on the people that did deliver shoe boxes. I was able to learn more about my future position and what is excepted of me next year. As I learned more about this organization and heard all the different stories... I realized. God put me here on purpose! I was made for this moment.... it's crazy to me to think... what would of happened had I not heard the call from God, when I did. What would of made me listen? Scary to think about but I do.


Anyways... today I was touched. It's amazing to me to see these boxes filled with toys. Then to see the how much work people put into these boxes for these kids that they may never see! Wow... what an amazing organization. We had a group of men from a nursing home, bring in four huge boxes of homemade trucks. I met a girl that got a box when she was a little girl in India. Hearing her story. Just made me realize, I was born to serve others. I love this feeling I get from serving others. I love to love on people. That's what I was made for. As I become more aware of this gift of serving, God gave me... I really understand who I really am. I am one of God's servants to the world but one that can grab the attention of many just with my smile.


Thank you Jesus for this amazing opportunity and all the amazing moments I have already had. I can't wait to see what the next few years bring with this program.


Weird but really cool... I know I am going to the mission field once I am done with school but today I had something brought to my attention. Tell me if this isn't weird.... God has me in a position where I meet every church in Spokane and in the region. I'm not an easy person to forget, so when it comes time for God to send me... I am pretty sure, God is just getting me ready for the future through this program and I am sure... my funding will come from the churches I am going to meet in the next few years! Crazy to think how amazing God is and how He works. I also figured out... my degree... I want to run an orphanage! I want to love on all those kids. I don't want one kid to ever feel like they are not wanted!


I read a story today about an orphan. I cried. Those kids are so amazing and their story would break your heart. At one point this amazing woman felt unloved, tried to commit suicide twice and both time almost succeeded. It wasn't till she was in her twenties, when she found Jesus and his love. However, in her box... she got a doll, which was the doll she had when her mom left her and her sister with their drunken father. It was the same doll she had when she was taken from her dad and put into an orphanage. She still has this doll and she still cherishes! A doll that someone put in their box for some little girl to love. Funny how the simplest gifts can mean the world to someone else. I want to change the world and I want to love on these kids. I want to be a missionary when I grow up... now why did it take me so long to figure that out... Think it would of been cheaper in college loans, had I figured that out sooner! Once again... it's all in God's timing! I do need this degree to run an orphanage... funny how I started this degree to become a 6 figure CEO! hmmm my accounting side is thinking... that math isn't adding up! wink wink
