It felt good to be busy as I filled that box, and already this morning, I was mentally filling another one. I told Brian if it is not too expensive, I am hoping we can send one every 2 weeks. Next time some chocolates for her caregivers and toys for her friends. We know she is in a room with 7 little children her age.
I fill my thoughts with her and read blogs of those that have traveled to learn what we may need, experience, or see. I also see that there are so so so many orphans, many of whom will never know a family. It is inescapably incomprehensible to me that this child was chosen by God's hand for us. Today, I saw this quote in one of the blogs. It perfectly captured my emotions...
"You have not chosen one another, but I have chosen you for one another" - C.S. LewisIt is a perfectly wonderful thought that nothing happens by chance. This child like my 3 others will be lent to me for a time to care and nurture. Her true parent tho is her heavenly Father, He is with her now and will be with her to the end of the age.
