My heart is breaking

I was just reading It's not OK with me by Janine Maxwell. She was telling a story of this girl she helped rescue. Both her parents had died of AIDS and this girl and her sisters were all separated. When they found this girl Lillian she weighed 12 pounds and she was about 10 years old. So crazy that this sort of thing happens. But God is so good. They prayed over this girl that she would have no diseases and would live. Because of God's miraculous healing she is alive and well. To hear stories like this makes me want to go sooner so I can help. There is some scary stuff happening. I just want to help these kids. I want to show them love and the Love of Christ. They are wanted and not just worthless nameless kids. God knows every one of their names and Loves them so much.

This book is blowing my mind. I originally though of this trip as a trip that I used to take down to Mexico. But hearing these stories it separating that thought. It's good. It makes me think and look at this trip in a whole new light. If you get a chance to read this book do it. But be prepared to be fired up and broken. But who knows you may end up in Africa some day helping these kids. I can't wait. God is good!
