A day of scabies baths at the orphanage.
My new little friend who desperately needed some new clothes and a little love.
I brought a pair of Jadyn’s socks and passed them on to this little angel.
“Do not be afraid, for I have redeemed you. I have called you by name; you are mine. When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up: the flames will not consume you. For I am the Lord, your God……” Isaiah 43:1-3
The above verse was given to me to tie around my suitcase in Haiti. We each got a different verse for the week. God knew which verse I needed! I have been trying to come up with one word to describe the trip. That is not an easy task. Words that come to mind are, amazing, difficult, exhausting, fun, exciting, scabies, filthy, hard work, incredible, daunting, dangerous, fascinating, overwhelming, challenging and yet a dream come true…..
One thing I knew the entire time was that I was supposed to be there, otherwise I don’t think I could have done it. If it was possible I would probably have brought about a dozen kids back in my suitcase!!! Sooo much need and yet so much love. Thank you all for your prayers, Kristin.
