It all started by waking up this morning - the "OH NO's" crept in - our final day at the "25th of May" orphanage for this visit. With it being my 3rd visit since May 2011, I KNEW what was fixin' to happen later today.....yup. It did. God showed to all of us how much love we've shared amongst EVERYONE - and they to us as well. It was difficult leaving tonight as it always is. I know truly in my heart that these kids know we are FO' REAL and are people they can trust in and believe. They KNOW we will return. They KNOW I am moving here next year, Lord willing. But as much as those truths are alive, it is still a tough nail to pull when leaving. God has blessed me SO MUCH this week its like drinking from a fire hose on 10. I wouldn't want it any other way. The rapids are the most awesome place to dwell. Right b4 we left, our GlobalX team prayed over the kids tonight in JESUS NAME. What a wonderful moment - and they all joined in....ALL. We had 3 inner circles - from tallest to shortest and yes, I was in the dead center with all the 7 and 8 yr olds....no laughing. I told them tonight that I don't have children but God has given all of them to me as my children. I am blessed....to be a blessing. God is great, Skopje is good, and I am crazy for Him. Enjoy the photos - the new album in in my profile area - and will download some more videos soon - they take so long to download. Love you all - you are SO MUCH A PART OF WHAT IS GOING ON OVER HERE.
