| As the kids are playing and laughing and the motorbikes fly by i notice this little girl that has a sad look on her face! As I keep watching her walk from one person to another asking for something to eat I realize that I have it so nice, when i want something to eat or drink i just go to a store or the refridgerator and get it! Then she walks up to me and asks me for food or money to buy food and i say "no"! But I play with her for awhile and start tickeling her all the while she is laughing and having fun! Then about 15 min. later she comes up to me again and with a sad look on her face asks me for food again! The look on her face brought tears to my eyes! So I got up and started across the lawn towards the street and when i get to the busy street i feel this little hand in mine! I look down and she is staring at me with her big black Cambodian eye's! So we walk hand in hand across the street and find a little resturant that sells rice. I take her inside and order rice with fried chicken while the cooks are busily preparing the rice and chicken in the kitchen the little girl is walking around in the resturant and touching all the chairs and paintings as if she had never seen things like that before! Then she finds a mirror and walks up in front of it and her eyes get big and a grin crosses her face! She spends a few min. in front of the mirror and soon the waitress brings the rice out and gives it to me! As I hand the food to the little girl the look on her face was unforgettable! Again tears came to my eyes! I paid for the food and we walked out of the resturant! We came to the busy street again and again i feel this little hand in mine! I look down and she is staring up at me with even bigger eyes and a hugh smile as we walk across the street! There are many children in Cambodia that need your help so please help out where you can!!! You only have one life and you can't take anything with you when you die! So make the most of your time here on this temporary earth and Serve Him with ALL of your Heart!!! |

| He is Awesome and has everything under control!! So why do I worry about little things so often? He answers so many "yarps"!!!! So why do I so often doubt Him? Why can't I just relax and sit back and let Him move? Why does a Father like Him (so big, Awesome, and all knowing) even care about somebody so small like myself....? He Desires A Personal Relationship With Every Person In The World!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

| Wow! To all followers of Jesus just a word of encouragment! We have the most awesome Father in the world! He loves us, knows what is best for us, wants to have a relationship with us, answers prayers, cares for us, and will always (in case u dont understand the word "always" look it up in the dictionary) be with us. I dont care if we are going the the deepest "mud" he is right there beside us engouraging us to focus on the final goal! And if we stand firm and dont yield to Satan we will spend eternity with the MAN that gave His life for us that day! Then 3 days later rose from the dead and is now sitting right beside His Father interceeding for me( a dirty little American that can't seems to fail over and over)! Man thinking about that and what has happened to me the last week or so just gives me an extra boost of energy to serve Him!! My heart goes out to all those that dont know Him and all the people that have never heard of Him! Wow the fields are deffinately "white ready for Harvest"! I was really challenged when i heard the song "Tears of the Saints" sung by Leeland! It describes the people of Cambodia very well! I will post the lyrics so you can read them then you can go download the song or buy the new WOW 2008 CD! well I just realized it is after 1 am so i need to get to bed! Think about these words as you read them! And Open your heart and be open to His will and have faith that He will take care of you! There are many prodigal sons
On our city streets they run
Searching for shelter
There are homes broken down
People’s hopes have fallen to the ground
From failures
This is an emergency!
There are tears from the saints
For the lost and unsaved
We’re crying for them come back home
We’re crying for them come back home
And all your children will stretch out their hands
And pick up the crippled man
Father, we will lead them home
Father, we will lead them home
There are schools full of hatred
Even churches have forsaken
Love and mercy
May we see this generation
In its state of desperation
For Your glory
This is an emergency!
There are tears from the saints
For the lost and unsaved
We’re crying for them come back home
We’re crying for them come back home
And all your children will stretch out their hands
And pick up the crippled man
Father, we will lead them home
Father, we will lead them home
Sinner, reach out your hands!
Children in Christ you stand!
Sinner, reach out your hands!
Children in Christ you stand!
There are tears from the saints
For the lost and unsaved
We’re crying for them come back home
We’re crying for them come back home
And all Your children will stretch out their hands
And pick up the crippled man
Father, we will lead them home
Father, we will lead them home

| Yes, I know that You have paved a path for me
Yes, I know that You see what I do and don’t need
But when it comes to the deepest things
I have a hard time relinquishing control
Letting go God, it hurts to give You what I must lay down
But when I let go, freedom’s found
God, it hurts to give You what I’ve held so dear
Because of Your love it’s clear
I can trust You with this
I can trust You with me
I can trust You Lord, I know that You are worthy of my trust
For You have shown me time and time again
You’re faithful and yet
I’m so scared of letting go of this
Afraid of what You might do with it
How could I forget who You are like this Me forsaking
Heart is breaking
I let go of what I’ve held so tight
Freedom’s mine now
For the taking
I move in faith, not by sight
Let Your will be done Written by Rebecca St. James and Shaun Shankel What an awesome song!! Just read over the highlighted part again!! Isnt it just awesome that we can trust God with..... ANYTHING
