God is full of them - surprises that is. There we were in the chippy having our weekly fish and chips and got chatting with someone who'd heard me speak about Rwanda on Sunday. She said some lovely things which alone was nice, and encouraging - but then went on to say she wanted to talk about sponsoring a child with us! Wow! That made my day. The food tasted better than ever!
Earlier this morning we were taking our tree down and packing 'Christmas' away for another year. Before Christmas for church tree festival we had decorated a tree with decorations featuring pictures of our 55 sponsored children. We took them home after that and used them on our own tree - bit of a different one this year! I packed away 55 children this morning, little knowing our amazing Rwanda family of children would rise by one precious soul later today. How good is God!
When I was doing the tree in church someone asked me which were my children - which did I personally sponsor - I did find mine there - but the answer is they are all mine in a sense. And adding to the family - well. nothing beats it.
