The face has a story.
My last blog was about a little Haitian girl that stole our hearts. Her name is Marie-Flore. I emailed Licia to ask about her story and she posted it on her blog. She had a seizure this past week and gave everyone at the rescue center quite a scare. Please pray for her. She may get to go back home to her mother soon so please pray that she stays healthy once she goes home. In some way I am attached to this beautiful little soul. God is awesome!
Things that have my Heart.
This man and this girl have my heart lately!
Ok allow me to tell you a couple things about the man that I love (my husband pictured above). 1) He usually doesn’t interact very much with small children or babies. 2) He absolutely hates it when anyone especially children pull on his t-shirts.
When I look at this photo my hearts melts into a tiny puddle on the floor and I am left defenseless.
My trip to Haiti has done so many things to me that have left me vulnerable and I would have it no other way.
While I was there I have felt more full of life and joy than I have in a long time. My cup is still overflowing. Haiti poured out more blessings on me than I could ever imagine. It makes me realize that if you turn your life over to God he will add many things.
So anyway Marcus picked this little girl up by his own free will and tickled her until they both giggled uncontrollably. He came to find me to show me her little giggle (and I have video). Then he sat with her and showed her his artistic flare with a crayon and a coloring book page. All the while she tugged on his shirt and looked up at his face. He did not reprimand her or set her aside. He loved her. And now my heart is dripping out of my body.
I love this little girl that I don’t know and I love my husband.
Where the sidewalk ends.
Lately I have been feeling like I am not sure where to go from here. I know that God has a plan coming up and I can’t see it. Am I not tuned in enough to hear it? I am feeling quite trapped. What if I make a wrong decision and screw everything up? Maybe I’ll just stand here and sulk. Do you think that will work? My guess is not.
