Sweet Blessings...

Last week while I was home for Spring Break, I was blessed in so many ways. I was able to spend sweet time with my family, had a surprise birthday party, and some time to just relax and rest in the Lord. But there was one moment of blessing that I wanted to share with you..
I went to visit my mom at school and got to go to chapel with the students. Afterwards, I had the privilege of sharing with the 2nd grade class about Trek-X and being a missionary. I was able to share with them that they are missionaries too (Matthew 28:18-20). But in sharing with them, my heart was so blessed. The class shared with me how they had been praying for me daily as they prayed for the nations/missionaries. They directed me to a picture they had drawn of me on their board to remind them to pray. I was so blessed by their faithfulness. Before I left, a couple of them actually prayed for me. Leaving the school, I was reminded of the power of prayer and how vital it is that we pray for one another. I have no doubt that many days I experience the blessing of these sweet kids' prayers.

Note the picture under the orange fish behind them...that's me :) 

"You also must help us by prayer, so that many will give thanks on our behalf for the blessing granted us through the prayers of many." 2 Corinthians 1:11
