Week 2!!! this week we are learning about the character of God. A subject that could be studied for years!! We are 2 days in and I already feel like my mnd has been expanded 10X on how awsome God is. We are learning the characteristics of God that he ment for us to have when he said he created us in His image. Such a challenge.
While here I have the opportunity to spend 2 hours 3 days a week with a family here on base. They have 2 kids Tilly,3, and Will,1. Gina and Chris are the parents. Gina has breast cancer and is on the road to healing the hand of the Lord. I go there and help her clean or babysit the kids. Whatever needs to be done. The kids are very precious and I cannot stress enough how blessed I am to be working with this family. Today Gina was resting while i was cleaning and a flood of love came over me when I realized im there to serve them and help them out but really I am the one who is being blessed. I almost started to cry at how great this experience is for me. God is contiously opening my heart to His love, I know he wants to overwhelm me with his goodness and I happy am to let Him. Gods waiting to bless you today, in the work you may do to serve others, just think of Jesus and what he did for others. He got joy out of serving those around him and he saw the beauty in those who could use a helping hand. Often we are too focused on ourselvesnto take the time to help those around us that we end up missing out on taking on the character of Jesus. Jesus loved to serve others, he did it happily and willingly and he blessed those he came in contact with. We need to be more like Jesus.
