Stolen Heart

Its finally happened!! My heart has been stolen!!.....alright alright calm down everyone...His name is Marvin. He is a young boy here who was in a fire years ago, and he's got burns covering his legs, arms, a patch on his face, and a large spot on his head, where no hair grows now. He is so special, extremely affection and has a loving smile. Last night all three of us went to a feeding, put on by Operation Mobilization, for children who are living in poverty. Just in from a busy street, under cement covering, a large group of kids gathered to recite a bible verse and hear a bible story, and than of course eat. The kids wanted to hold our hands and sit in our laps as they listened to the bible story. And Marvin sat in my lap, and in doing so, stole my heart. He didn't want my arms to leave him, and he shifted to find the most comfortable position to try and sleep, being so tired. I looked at him and just loved him instantly. I looked over to Anna and she had a little girl sitting in her lap and Amberly had a very active boy sitting in her lap as well, and i know they were loving up on these kids as well. And my prayer as i am sure Anna and Amberly's is also (sorry girls for speaking for you ;) is that even though we may not be fluent in Cebuano language, we may speak to these children in the language of Love. God has poured out his love on each of us, and because of that we are able to show His love to these children. I pray that they will see God's love, and know that our arms are His, and our laps are His and they are fully protected.
peace out - Amber Rae
