"I have so much joy in my heart as I see you standing in my home. I know that you travelled around the whole world to come and share time with me in my home, and that helps me know the Father's love."
"This is the most joy I have experienced in my entire life. Other teams have come before, but you have satisfied us."
"In our culture and in our attempts to reach our children with the gospel, we hand it down to them like we hold all the knowledge and they should listen. You have shown us how to touch their hearts, to love them, and to show them a better way."
Matthew 18:3 says, "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven."
Matthew 19:14 says, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."
In the village we saw this happen. In a culture that knows little more than despair and exhaustion, we were able to see JOY. In a people that knows of hard labor with no gain, we saw dancing!
More to come, I promise, but here is our video from the week in the mean time.
