Our church supports an international ministry called Operation Christmas Child. Each year, we pack shoeboxes with an array of items --from personal care to toys to school supplies-- and those boxes are collected and sent out to the places where they're needed most. Where Jesus is needed most.
And today, we had the privilege of hearing from a young woman who actually received one of those shoeboxes many years ago.To say that her testimony was inspirational would be an understatement. Every word she spoke was soaked in her obvious gratitude to God and thankfulness for Jesus, from her recollections of her early life to her joy over having received colored pencils of her very own inside her shoebox gift.
It was beautiful. And I am grateful that I was there to hear the message.
