Here we Go Again....

Just when it seemed there was no interest in Malawi this summer, my devotional was this:
" One of the barriers to becoming a woman who makes a difference is simply this: we don't want to. In many ways, we would like to stay blind and small, like baby mice. We don't realize how fulfilling , how thrilling, being a difference maker can be. Jesus invites us to be people who see and then act. When we do so our very desires are changed. "
" I once was blind, but now I see," proclaims the old hymn. What was it that miraculously gave us vision? Grace." writes Keri Wyatt Kent in Simple Compassion.

In the next few days came several inquiries about the team and whether there was still room. As of today, we are a team of 6. God is amazing. And faithful. This is His mandate for me. I've been gloriously ruined for the HIV/AIDS affected and infected orphans, widows and vulnerable children of Lilongwe,Malawi. My heartbeat is to share God's generous love that carries me each day; so they too can believe and know His amazing love.
