SUNDAY
S - Standing in awe of the work God does in lives;
U - Untold blessings through children eyes I see;
N - New appreciation as a young teen who recently lost a father,
D - Does not hesitate to praise God through song that calls God -
A - Awesome, beautiful, wonderful -
Y - Yes, I too stand in awe of God at work; may we all see God at work in the world and give Him praise.
These are our refugees except for one missing the day we took the picture. This is the van God provided to transport our refugee families. And as the CD was playing last Sunday in the van the thirteen year old who has been in the country a year March 28, whose dad died in Sept. 2006, whose English is limited said her favorite song was 'Standing in Awe of God' and wanted me to repeat it; as I listened to the words I was humbled at her appreciation and love for God even in all of the struggles she has faced in her short life; she loves God. God help those of us who have never had to flee for our lives, live in a refugee camp for years, move to a new country and speak no English, lose a parent, yet we refuse to give God a chance because the world does not treat us the way we think it should or God doess't do for us what we think he should.
God, today help me learn how to really appreciate what I have and to praise you for it. Amen
Blessings friends - and be thankful - June
