As I sit in the internet Cafe, I relieze how much I love the people here. my heart is broken, and tears have been running for days as I think about recent events. One boy raped, another beat, and yet another thinks he is worthless. I can't imagine God's pain for them. My heart is nothign like his, yet it hurts more than I thought possible!!

One thing that has been hard for me as these events unfold is that I feel so helpless, like I can not do anythign to change the way these kid's lives happen. But, as heather reminds me, this is okay!! My prayers can reflect that, adn i can continually remind myself that God is the only one who can heal adn protect them. I am jsut asking that you pray for these children as well, adn together we can fight the battle that is larger than we can imagine!!
