Charmaine!
On Saturday I was reminded of a sweet and affectionate 6 year old girl who ran up to me and gave me a big hug on my second day at Community Hope School. Well...that girl is no longer 6 but turned 14 on Saturday, still sweet, affectionate and really polite. I never thought we’d become such good friends. God has His ways of bringing people together and I am so thankful that He did. After a long journey of investing, teachings and different faith-based exposure Charmaine finally came to faith 2 years ago and her genuine faith has been a great example and encouragement to me and her peers.Through our experience, she taught me to be more patient, more loving and much more appreciative of the little things in life. She taught me the value of being there for people, to stay connected and to never take them for granted.
With her, I have these constant reminders of why I am blessed. Constant reminders that turns
(1Thessalonians 2:8) into purpose, purpose into passion, and passion into change. She is just not my student...she is family!
(1Thessalonians 2:8...We cared so deeply that we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God, but our own lives as well...)
That is how beloved she have become to me.
