Orange is definitely your color...

I'm so loving watching my husband leave to go run with his Team World Vision shirt on. It is bright orange and you can see it from a mile off. Can't miss it. I LOVE IT! I hope my enthusiasm is that bright and clear when people ask me about our purpose or want to listen to me talk about it. I am so honored to be able to do this to help children half way around the world. I love that this organization is not only sending money over, but that it is being used for such an awesome cause. I don't think I've explained this very clearly to many people, but the money we raise is not just to feed people. It is to buy supplies and give to people that are caregivers. These caregivers are native to this land just like those suffering but they are in a position where they can help those who are sick and hungry. Our money helps them have the resources they need, the supplies they need, and the education they need to help others. They are our hands and feet of this ministry. So this is why I run. (Or swim or ride a bike as I did today.) God is so good and I'm so blessed. Not only because I have everything I need and more, but because I felt the tug. I felt God's hand upon my heart telling me that this is His will. And I am blessed because I get to do this for them. For our Saumu and for Samuel and all the others who are in no condition to help themselves. And I'm blessed because God has taught me a love that reaches over the oceans and across the miles to children and people that I've never met and will never meet. A love that knows no boundaries, no color, no circumstance. HIS kind of love and I am blessed to experience just a little of it. Yes, I think orange is DEFINITELY our color.
