Un ejemplo para mi

An example for me. Lizbet is 9 years old and as petite as can be. I went to her house to play today after club. First we went to the store to pick out a snack "botana". She chose a package of four strawberry cookies. After walking to her house we began to play and had four other kids play with us. She opened up her cookies to eat while we played, yet first offered a cookie to each child playing with us. After giving each child a cookie there were none left for her and she continued to play the game never to think of asking for one of the cookies back for herself.

"Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?" And he said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself." Matthew 22: 36-39

Thanks for sharing, Ashley - what a great reminder! You encourage me so often with your insights and stories. I'm praying that you are being encouraged when you need to be, and that you will continue to be a blessing to the children you are working with. I love you!
