Swaziland, with the highest AIDS rate in the world and an average life expectancy of 28, is a beautiful country with a people that exude joy and life.
Our time was spent, largely, with children whose lives are impacted by the AIDS crisis...children, ages 18 mos. to 5 years, who walk up to 5 miles to CarePoints where they can get a meal for the day...many times, their only meal for the day.
Children who eagerly accept hugs and cuddles....
who need to experience the love of Christ in tangible ways....
who need those with SO much to spend time giving so little...
We've been home 3 weeks tomorrow.
I've been to Swaziland, and I'm speechless.
Now what Lord...I've seen the need, and I will be back. Show me how to share the blessings you've given me with those who are so desperately in need.
