How well can people hide their feelings?
Lately I've been thinking about well everything 😄. I've had quite a bit of down time to say the least. One of the main things I've been thinking about is all the kids at Esther's house; how it must have felt before they came to live at the orphanage to wake up every morning and not have a mum to hug and kiss, and a father to lean on when you need it. I mean really, if you think about it how could most of us even get through one day without our parents. We depend on, well I do at least, our parents so much that if God took them away to his kingdom, how could we even keep on keepin on. I mean sure God would help us and we would eventually be able to get through it, but I still wouldn't be as happy as I used to be, I would probably break down every time I thought of them. The kids here are probably more, what's the word, alive than most people I know. I've never seen one complain or not give everything they do their all. I could literally just sit down and listen to one child, just one child, tell me their life story and my life would never be the same. These kids, no young adults, are some of the strongest and mature people I've ever seen. If anyone needs encouragment just think of the kids down here and what they went through every day before they came to Esther's house. Some of the things people complain about just...ugh haha it makes me want to call them and pull them through the telephone and show them what the Malawians go through everyday and how small their problems really are. Now don't get me wrong not everyone's problems are little compared to people's here, some are even greater, but God has a way of getting people through life changing events. He can help through the people around you, reading your bible, and through prayer. Well thank you for reading. If you have any questions you can comment below, FaceBook message, or text.
