One of my favorite things
to do was to softly feel those tiny hairs on the back of her neck going towards
her hairline. This was a favorite of mine with my own children as well, however
they are all grown up and I still do it to them. There is just something about it,
which makes my heart beat with love.
On the 18th of
this month Olesego turned 3… So much has changed in the year we have been apart.
Even my love has changed! It is stronger than before. I am learning to love her
family as well. I often call to check on them to see how they are all doing. And
with each time I feel closer to them. I love it when I get an unexpeted call from them. I have to run around like a chicken with my head cut off, trying to find someone to interpret the phone call...
Just a few weeks back. I
had an idea to by all the children in the family shoes, and for the ones that
attend School, jerseys to help stay warm over the winter months. Wasn’t sure
how this was going to take place since it looked impossible for me to even have
the money to send for them to travel to Maun. The last two months have brought
some unexpected financial commitments and my monthly support was delayed in
coming in.
However I do know that the
Lord placed an item on my heart to sell. He even gave me the amount to sell it
for. If it sold, it would provide the needed cost of their transportation,
their food, jerseys and shoes.
Well I did that very
thing, it sold quickly. So with money in hand I purchased their bus tickets to
Maun. Went grocery shopping and made sure to pick up some of Olesego’s favorite
things. On Saturday we will head to town and buy the shoes and jerseys.
You know I love watching
how God does things. He goes before us and makes a way when it seems like there
is not one.
