Jesus Loves Me
"Jesus loves me this I know, for the bible tells me so. Little one to Him belong, we are weak but He is strong." A simple song that we all know by heart. Every night Courtney, Laura, Dana, and I do devotion and we always start with a song. Since none of us seem to know any of the same songs, we sang this one. When it's really one of the only songs you have, you really listen to the words that you are singing. When you get past the wordiness, multiple verses, and bridge parts of all the worship songs and you go back to the simple children's worship, it is a lot easier to just see Jesus work. The bible tells me that Jesus loves me. I belong to Him. I am weak, but He is strong. While I am here I am going to have weak days, but God sent me here so I trust that He will be my strength. There are still no girls here yet, but they a coming and I can't wait to teach them these songs to show them how much their Savior loves them. Yes, you read that right! Girls are coming. They are not the original 7 we had found earlier in the year, but they are girls who have nothing: no hope now or for the future. We don't know where they are from or even how many are coming this week, we just know that God has sent us to take care of His little children that He loves.
