Faraway Thinking....

I was daydreaming a little,lot, :)  I was thinking about Deborah and Mehamenden, our Compassion kids, and I started thinking about the letter that we had received from Deborah. She likes to play the game Ampe (Ahm-pay). So I couldn't resist looking it up. I found several videos on youtube, here is one of them:

I know you may be thinking I am crazy, but I love watching these children playing and imagining that Deborah is playing a game just like that in her little village in Ghana. It just makes her feel a little closer, I suppose. I am so thankful that God helps us remember that our corner of the world is not all there is...that we should look outside to those in need and help them if we can. It's neat to be able to explore the world through the computer and get an idea of what our kids in Africa might get to do for fun, and what they eat, and a peek at what their lives really could be like. It helps us pray more accurately for them.
