A woman blinded by the darkness, lost because of the enemy and broken hearted found hope for her 3 day old daughter Tavitha at the Asha house. My team has now spent 3 days at the Asha house and have had a great time, teaching English and getting to know the children. but there was one little girl in particular that had me hooked day one. there was just one problem, she did not like foreigners! Tavitha want to play with all the other children and be apart of everything but she did not want you to talk to her or even touch her. this broke my heart and made me want to love on her like no one had ever done before. so that is just what i did. i started on her level by letting her put coconut oil in my hair like her care takers had done for her just moments before, then she again was on her way. While I helped out the 6 children that were in “my class” she sat near by and colored in her coloring book.
I have spent some time in prayer that the Lord would just open the hearts of the people of India and prepare their hearts like he had done just months before for my team and I, and seeing as how God is a god that stands by his word this is just what he did. after class while playing with the children Tavitha ran up to me with arms wide open waiting to be picked up. Awww the break through, oh how I waited for this moment. It was worth the wait, 3 days of loving on her and gaining her trust all for 5 minutes of what I would call heaven in my arms!
