"there is unspeakable comfort - the sort of comfort that energizes, be it said, not enervates - in knowing that God is constantly taking knowledge of me in love and watching over me for my good. there is tremendous relief in knowing that his love to me is utterly realistic, based on every point on prior knowledge of the worst about me, so that no discovery now can disillusion him about me, in the way that i am often so disillusioned about myself, and quench His determination to bless me." - j.i.packer, knowing God

kristen lee adrienne and i went to help out at an orphanage this morning
all the children were handicaped in some way
we played with them, helped some walk and fed them lunch
it was intense but also amazing to see

i don't know how to explain it


after.
i cannot stop thinking about those children
they were abandoned by their parents
and even now they are treated so poorly
i am inadequate to help them. but You are more than they need.
