Jesus Loves Me

Moment of the day.

We have a bunch of kids up from Regent Park this week at Wabana, which of course is absolutely awesome. One of the boys though has been having a bit of difficulty just with listening, and not wanting to participate in bible, or devotions or anything along those lines.

However, tonight at campfire....

While two of the cabin leaders were up at the front leading "Jesus Loves Me," this particular camper went up...stood between the two staff...put his arms around one of them...and began to softly sing along. It totally melted my heart as he completely humbled himself, shed the "tough guy" image, and sang Jesus loves me in front of 120 campers and 35 staff members.

God is working in his life. Amen
