To be honest there is days all I want to do is cry and I do because I completely feel alone with the work I am doing here in Mexico (I know God is with me). Everyday I have obstacles and people that fight against what I am doing, however that has not stopped me to be a voice for these kids. I fight and fight for them so that they will have a better future, so that they will know that they are valuable. If no one does then no one else will... God has called me to see theses precious children succeed and so that they will know they are not the trash people said they were, or useless as it has been spoken many times to them.
However, the greatest reward is to see theses kids smile again and for them to finally believe that they have a future. That they are worth it and that they are worth fighting for! When I first came into the orphanage the kids would tell me why should I even try in school if I have no future, who will pay my tuition, university, and materials? Their mentality was to quit school and get a job because there was no one that believed in them. Now 3 months later as you sit with them and ask them what they want to do, they will share their hopes and dreams of becoming something.
God says that He is the light and I have seen it first hand in a dark place... There is light, a light of HOPE, that only comes from Jesus Christ. Theses kids for the first time in years have a chance to live life and to know that their lives matter.
