Beautiful Daughters

Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable.  Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.  Phillipians 4:8

It's not yet light out as I lay in my bed, soothed by the sound of gentle raindrops outside my window. This is a quiet time for me, a peaceful time of wondering what God will be teaching me today and what He will be putting before me.  Everyday is a well thought out plan of His and I am a servant that follows His still small voice and fully enjoys the love that surrounds me.  The usual morning run was cancelled today due to the relaxing rain our Lord sent us giving me a little more time to enjoy the peaceful quietness of my Fathers presence.  As I lay thinking about my day, excited about what it will bring, thoughts of the beautiful daughters I have adopted cross my mind.  The days I spend with them full of joy, peace, song, dance and praising our precious Heavenly Father.  You see the girls I live with were rescued from living on the streets, in the slum.  A life of desperation, poverty, and fear.  A place where they had to fight to find food, to even exist.  The Lord led them to us and now they live in a place designed by God, a place of peace, joy and love.

The most amazing part of each of their stories and mine is the divine transformation that I have been able to experience in each of them.  When they came here most of them didn't know God or didn't want to.  With each day in our home bringing a gentle nudging of His love, a teaching from God's word and a continuous showing of God's grace I have seen total transformations in each of them.  I listen to them daily sing songs of praise to our Lord with happiness in their hearts.  They love their life now.  They are anxious to see what each new day brings and are looking forward to what the future holds for them.  A future full of opportunity and success.  This is all due to God choosing each one of them to be part of this beautiful organization.  We have told our girls that they were each "hand picked" by God to be here.  That was God's plan.  How special do they feel realizing how much God loves them by bringing them here.

I see an aura of confidence, honesty and humility shining the light of Jesus through our girls.  They radiate the fragrance of Jesus in their smile, their laughs, their songs and their voices.  Young ladies with a self motivated drive to spread the love of Jesus and accomplish all of their dreams.  They share with others their stories and how their lives have been transformed to help others who may be in need, who may be straying down that exact same road they were living, to encourage those who are walking out a life God has designed for them.  They are God's vessels, His hands and feet and His blessing.

Thank you so much for your donations.  The donations sent have helped each of these precious girls.  They are able to receive medical care and dental care thanks to you.  Your donations have helped with food and transportation expenses and some time for fun.  I thank those of you who have donated clothing and shoes which are much needed for each girl.  I most of all thank you for the prayers and taking time to be interested in what God is doing here in Uganda.  God is performing an amazing miracle in all of the girls.  I am anxious to see what God has planned and designed as their lives continue to unfold.
