Mary’s Musings

She’s up to something…

Four years ago, while I was in India, children followed us everywhere in the villages. The guys on my team had a good grasp on what the boys wanted to do: play. The other girl on my team and I spent a lot of time with the young girls. They couldn’t understand us, and we couldn’t understand them, but none of us cared. One day, we got buckets of water and shampoo and washed these girls’ hair. For some of them, it seemed like it must have been the first time, but they liked it. We brushed and combed their hair too and nothing will get those smiles out of my mind.

This year I have been a part of planning for summer Edge teams to go out. We sent another Edge team (pic below) to the same villages.  They worked with the same kids, four years later. The girls on the team played with these same  young girls again. But something happened. Two of the little girls gave their lives to Christ. Four years ago my teammates and I planted seeds in tough terrain. And four years later, a group came by to harvest.

How awesome is God? He is moving in India, and we were a part of it! It’s not easy or quick or glamorous, but He is worth everything!

Please pray for these two new believers in Christ. That He would continue to grow their faith. And also for these other children that follow in the villages, that everything they hear would be a seed planted, and in God’s perfect timing would produce glorious fruit!
