So i was asked to write a article for the CF news letter about something and i have been dreading writing it for a while! but today i sat down and wrote about 3 kids that changed my life! and it made me reflect on that and look at their life and how for kids the most people would count as a loss have taught me so much! but like i said in the article it hasnt always been easy (running around RI looking for anthony because he ran away from the youth center, or breaking up fights) something happened when i stopped looking at them like the "bad kids" that fought and caused problems and looked behind that mask and saw insecure kids that is just reaching out for love and attention in any way! also when i examined why he acted the way he did and got to know the kids family situations it changes the way you think about every child! i never want to pass judgment on a kid or person for any reason because you dont know what situation each kid comes from!
Nothing will ever make my heart smile as much as pulling into their neighborhood and seeing them smile and run up to hug me! what an amazing privilege God has given me to serve these kids in his name!!!!!! :)
