Today as we looked at countries and pictures, India in particular, we came across this photo. As we talked of what kind of model she wanted to be, I thought back on my own role models. One of whom is my aunt Robin. She is a missionary in the Ivory Coast of Africa and there are many times when I wish to be like her. I want to help people. I want to give them what they need, help out in their homes, and help them find jobs. I want to care for others.
Like her, I want to live a life that inspires. But even while I would love to travel, and meet the needs of others around the world, I think I can still help others right here where I already am. I can make arts and crafts for others. I can put my hats, scarves, bracelets, key chains, and so much more in boxes, and send them to their homes. I can make baby blankets for new born babies. And read bible stories to others, as well as teach little kids to read. I can do all of this and so much more. I can do a lot. I can inspire others by who I am, and who God is making me to be. I can shine for Him. I can smile, and say kind words. I can be welcoming, and there for others. I can be a light in this world. I shine for Jesus every time I make people happy.
