| Cooling off with a Kat-sicle |
Today at Shepherd’s Field, we spent more time getting to know the kids and interacting with them. Although I wasn’t too sure at first what to expect during this visit, coming to Shepherd’s Field was like stepping back into the past for me. As a child, everyone was your friend and you all shared a common language: fun. When I saw all these kids all running around and playing, I saw beyond their physical disabilities and knew they were fearfully and wonderfully made, God’s perfect creations.

These past two days have been very physically draining. Going around from house to house and seeing, playing and just plain loving these children have been very tiring. They never seem to let go of you and it always tugs at my heartstrings to have to set them down and leave. Being with the kids has shown me how blessed my life has been and how much more of a blessing I could be to others around me. To break it down to one word, these first two days have been amazing.

But I’ll admit, spending time with these kids has tested me as well. There were times when I felt like my own love might not have been enough for the kids, but God showed me time and time again that I was not to love the kids with my own love, but with His plentiful and boundless love. Oh man, I don’t know if that last sentence made any sense…

I know that in the days to come, I’ll continue to learn and grow. I can’t wait!
