Thank you

"Happy New Year. Hope you are well. Thank you for the gift you sent to me. I bought a pair of trousers, wheat flour, and cooking fat. May God bless you."

I just sat down to read this letter from one of the children we sponsor, Moses. It brought tears to my eyes to sit and think about how sending a small amount of extra money to Moses for Christmas allowed him to buy a pair of pants and cooking supplies for his family. We are a world apart and our children are growing up in America, yet we share the same love for Jesus which unites us. When I received this letter, I could not help but think how funny it is that Moses is "thanking us." No Moses, thank you. I have been blessed by you.
