Annetta shared these thoughts with us:
Today started out just like any other day. We bath, ate breakfast, and had a devotion led by Laura. we drove to Naymbakam. When we arrived I felt something different. As some of you know children are very special to me and I love playing with them. At the medical camps I have been helping hold children while the get their Hep B vaccination. Usually I have been helping with the babies. Today I held the bigger kids. One of the very first ones laid their head on my shoulder while getting their shot and cried. Even after the shot was over they just laid against me crying. It was at that moment that it hit me that God wishes we would come to him like that. To just lay our head on his shoulder and cry. To let Him comfort us and tell us all will be OK. My favorite verse is Phil 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Sometimes we do not read the full verse and we stop at "I can do all things," today I was reminded to finish reading the verse, "through Christ who strengthens me." To stop and lay my head on his shoulder just like the child did today. Annetta H. -super teammate.
