This week we were able to work in another preschool. These children were crazy,and I had no clue how to help keep them under control. There was this one boy who was pretty much the trouble maker in the class. He would misbehave, but when I would give him one on one attention his face would just light up. Then as the week went on I began to give this little boy more and more attention. He began to warm up to me as well. I realized that this was all he wanted. He wanted love and attention that he may not get at home. And my heart broke for him. He is so precious and I know that my love is nothing compared to the love that our Father can give him. I so desperately want this little boy to know what it is like to feel true, unfailing, perfect love. My heart breaks because I feel like the love I give him may not be enough.
This week we also had the chance to go into the slum. We were able to do feet washing for some women there. This was such a humbling experience. A person’s feet in India are considered dirty and untouchable. So when these women realized we wanted to do this for them they were in shock. They could not believe that we would want to clean and wash their feet for them. These women told us they wanted us to come back next week so that they could wash our feet! They saw the love we had for them by doing this and the love He has for them. I am blessed and humbled to have been able to serve these women in this way.
