Then and Now

We have had the privilege of watching God bring 6 of the 97 children home to our orphanage.  Millicent and Ruth came on the same day with two others.  They were scared, malnourished, shy and obviously apprehensive. 

Check out Millicent's eyes and the circles under them.

Ruth looked like she expected the sky to collapse at any minute and never smiled.

Fast forward three months. 

On a walk this Sunday afternoon, Richard and I met several of the kids playing.  Here is Millicent, spontaneously posing for a photo.  Check out those sparkly eyes.

Ruth was sharing the see-saw with John and loving every minute.

What a privilege we live everyday to see God transforming the lives of the "least" ones.
