i love our little cherubs

Kids are the fastest way to my heart and the kids of Second Mile have surely captured my heart. I am blessed to even be a part of the community of Second Mile, let alone be able to teach the kids. Over the past two and a half years it has been my goal to develop relationships with all of them. Yes, I want to be the fun one but I also want to be someone they can talk to about anything going on in life. It's a hard balance, but I'm working on it.

Tonight, I got to teach our 2nd-5th grade class about the Hebrew name of God, Jehovah-Or. That lesson is for a whole other blog post but I was reminded how great of an honor it is to teach our kids. I am blessed by them. I am challenged by them and their tough questions. I am pushed towards being a better follower of Jesus because of them.

I simply have no other words than "Wow! I am the luckiest girl alive!" My little 2M Cherubs, thank you for allowing me to be a part of your lives, I don't ever take that for granted. Thank you for being a constant reminder of how great it is to have child-like faith. Thank you for letting me vicariously live through you. Thank you for allowing God to use you to redeem so many parts of my life. I am a better person because of you.
