"Some people are music to the soul simply in being just who they are. And I'm amazed how life gives us countless possibilities to discover, and to be wrapped up in levels of beauty that we could have never imagined without a divine touch of Grace" ... I wish I could take credit for this little piece of truth. It was a friend's Facebook status, which became mine in a moment of "why didn't I come up with that" weakness. But this statement is so true! Life do give us countless possibilities to discover beauty. Why did we become so reluctant to see that?
I had a meeting this morning with Luani, the director of a Children's Ministry called "I am Special." What an amazing woman! This is an awesome charity who's only mission is to let children feel loved and let them know that they are special...just because (like one of her Grade 3 students said) "God made me too!"
I will be volunteering with them starting February 2011 and I can not wait! I'm so excited about working with these kids growing up in difficult circumstances and to make them feel that they ARE special, even if it is just for half an hour a day.
