words to sum up my one month with the young people:
equipping
conversations about identity & destiny
modeling
love in action
deep talks on life and whys
doing together
prophetic words
I had the privilege of spending more one-on-one time with the girls than expected....
.....a long walk with XM through half the small town as we went to dinner, seeing her through her time of illness, walking arm-in-arm with her as she shared about her thoughts on someone's passing, sitting beside her to watch a dvd....
....breaking the ice in a frozen sink in the cafe and trying to wash dishes with frozen pipes with MY, having a sharing time during an electricity failure, her rare openness when she tries to learnt the songs she likes and wears her heart on her sleeve when she tells me why it means so much to her....
every girl is so different and i love that.
I love the challenge of meeting each where she is, of breaking down barriers gradually, and of understanding how to reach each one.
I love walking with young people.
