I am one exhausted lady tonight! I can hardly move I'm so sore. But I'm full. Not full because I've eaten food (although that's true too) but full of life at the moment.
I volunteered tonight at my local community center with many others from my church. Day camp for the underprivileged in my city. Although it was exhausting and all that, it was well worth it. I'm glad my daughter and I volunteered to help.
There was one little boy who wasn't supposed to be in my group but we allowed him to stay anyway. He didn't say much. He definitely stood out from the rest to me. He seemed to be heavy about something. I tried to engage him more because if that and he opened up a little and joined in the things we were doing. I don't know what it is he's going through, but I will be praying for him especially tonight. Whatever burdens this little boy has, may he look to God. And may God look over little Tyrese and help him in whatever troubles he's facing. Lord give him comfort.
This is what loving others is all about. I pray that I'm able to help out again tomorrow. And I pray that what we're doing has an impact here.
My sweet escape to explore, discover and reveal my past, present and future.

About Me
- atti2dchic
- I'm a Christian who questions many of the commonly held beliefs of evangelical Christianity. I don't claim to know it all nor do I expect I ever will. But in a few areas, I have found answers that satisfy my desire to understand. And I continue to hunger and thirst for Him. To know Him and to worship Him in spirit and in truth.
