This day is forever engraved in my heart. Our Grade 3
learners had their farewell today and it was out of this world. I caught myself
teary-eyed on multiple occasions. This group of learners is special because I
met them three years ago, they were babies! They were the group to tell me that
their pencils were broken, or they didn’t have space to write on. It’s been a
journey of learning and unlearning, learning more about myself. More than anything,
I love how these kids have embraced me and showered me with love. They are not
perfect, but to me they come close to it – they are cheerful, helpful,
hard-working, focused, silly and inquisitive. They love God.
This day is also special because it’s a day before my
birthday. Tomorrow, I turn 28 years old. My life is a testament of God’s grace
and how he consistently pursues me. I’ve watched God using the very experiences
that have brought shame and pain to lead me to my purpose. Sometimes I get
disappointed in my failures, but I’m so grateful for the progress. I’m grateful
to God for carrying me. At times, I’ve felt overwhelmed, I’ve wanted to give
up, but God has been a comfort. I’m grateful.
I can’t believe I turn 28 years young! There’s been many
life lessons along the way but above all, my heart yearns for God and nothing
else. Lying on the bosom of God will be enough for eternity.
