Just a few things that came to mind after reading this entry:

“Never underestimate the power of a small group of committed people to change the world. In fact, it is the only thing that ever has.” – Margaret Mead

Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. – James 1:27
- don’t let the world pollute your thoughts and love for these children – even if that is the destiny of their future, they will NEVER forget the love they received from you

Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it. – Hebrews 13:2
- although, I think you already know they are angels…but my point is, just as these girls will never forget the love you show them, you should never forget how God feels about what you are doing there in India! – cling to the truth of the scriptures Rocky, Satan loves to lie to us – especially when we live by faith and do amazing things for God and his children!

God will reward your efforts, time and sacrifices you’re giving for your kids there…
“it isn’t the big pleasures that count the most…It’s making a great deal out of the little ones”… love this quote…and that’s true…each single action we do can have a great impact in the future…so go on

What brad had written, i had the same thing too. What we do may not be sustainable, but we leave footprints so others with similar dreams can take inspiration from you… Whatever we do with good intent, would never go in vain and it will reap rich here and for their eternity…. Keep up… Lots of love from all of us here in Jodhpur!!!

If your love for these children is not sustainable is it any less valid? Should you stop doing what you are doing because you can’t sustain it? Of course not! Each day has enough trouble of it’s own (matt 6:34), do what you can today and if you wake up tomorrow do what you can then as well. There’s this awesome quote I found, that you need to hear:

“I have never been especially impressed by the heroics of people who are convinced they are about to change the world. I am more awed by those who struggle to make one small difference after another.”

-Ellen Goodman

You’re doing great. I love you.
