During the month of February I was privileged to be:
a servant
a helper
a mother
a giver of baths
a nap time lullaby
a changer of diapers
a giver of kisses
a safe place
a friend
a big sister
a giggle companion
a tissue
a hand to hold
a spoon feeder
a band aid placer
a duet partner
a boo-boo kisser
a playmate
a corrective word
a time-out demander
a light in the dark
a soother of fears
a shoulder to cry on
a truth speaker
a pointer toward the Word of God
a cuddle buddy
a broom sweeper
a bed maker
a dish washer
a comforter
a teacher
for the sweetest Haitian children I have ever met.
Above all, I was able to be love.
And the amazing part about it, I, alone am none of those things. I don't have strength to fill those roles or be that woman. But by God's sufficient grace and perfect strength, I was able to be a lot of
what those sweet babies needed. And I am so thankful that He chose to use me and supplied my every need.
