prayer

The girls love praying for Jivenson and Haiti and it's beautiful to hear. Tonight I told the girls about the cholera outbreak and how people are getting sick from drinking water. I told them too that where Jivenson lives, they only drink bottled water so he will be safe. Wesli looked at me with wide eyes and urgency in her voice and said, "Oh Lord, help the people in Haiti who drink that water and thank you that my little brother is safe. Let healthness go into that water and heal them and not be sick anymore." It was the most precious prayer and the kind of prayer that could move mountains! Both the girls pray for him everyday and Melat starts every breakfast that way. It is so amazing to watch our children's world view expand and see their eyes open to the world outside of our home and to see their response to it...prayer.
