Friends, many of you know my oldest two boys and I tutor school - TopicsExpress



          

Friends, many of you know my oldest two boys and I tutor school age children at wheeler on Mondays. Some weeks I leave inspired, sometimes drained, but tonight I left with a heavy heart. One of the girls that Ive grown especially fond of gave me a hug on our way out. We cannot initiate hugs but we can accept. I was very touched by this but after the door closed behind me I heard her mother yelling at her for spelling homework that, to her, looked messy. As we got into the car to leave the song give me your eyes was playing. I mentioned the irony to my boys and shared that I was upset at the life this child was living. I was also angry that her mother was upset with her over something that seemed so small. My boys agreed, but also suggested thinking about that mom and that maybe she so wanted better for her daughter that she pushed her that hard to do well in school. I wont ever know. But opened my eyes. Thank you Lord for speaking to me through my boys and a song. Please pray for our homeless families! youtu.be/P5AkNqLuVgY
