Can you imagine these precious children in that moment, with a bold revelation of love? To be in such a place of squalor and have someone stretching across continental borders, giving a piece of themselves just to say, "You are worthwhile and I love you." The stories that come out of these moments tell of the transforming power of love.
Now imagine yourself. He stretched across heavenly borders, giving all of Himself just to say "You are worthwhile and loved." Does time slows a little? "You are worthwhile and loved." Can you see hope push out despair? "You are worthwhile and loved." It's overwhelming, isn't it? "You are worthwhile and loved." We are left transformed.
We can but bow in humble adoration for the One who is love itself.
Oh how He loves us!

Hi Dunlizzie,
ReplyDeleteThis is my first visit to your blog; thanks for sharing the work and ministry you're involved in. There is a project here in America I'm familiar with called Angel Tree that gives Christmas gifts to the children of inmates.
You are worthwhile and loved. It sounds so encompassing and overwhelming to understand the depth and degree God has for me. It is undeserved but so appreciated.
Blessings and peace.

We are doing the Christmas Shoe Boxes here too (Wisconsin,USA) and just saw a video at church showing the kids opening them...how fun to think of all the shoe boxes ariving for the kids from all over the world!
ReplyDeleteI really like hearing these words...You are worthwhile and loved....we all need to hear and experience that! Christmas Shoe Boxes is a great ministry. Our youngest used to love to shop to fill one or two...God bless your work.
