   America's Birthday is today, and i am not even there to celebrate with my lady liberty, but the funny thing is...... I don't want to. This place is fantabulous!! The people here are so sweet its crazy. I love everyone here in Jbay. The kids are what i love the most here.
 
   It is so funny, because all of the children fight, but yet when I get one on one time with them they are the sweetest kids in the land. Just today, Mr. Tough Guy, which is a 9 year old little black african named Ra Ra ( roll the R), came up to me today right after he got done picking at his peers, and he sat in my lap and told me that I was his father. His friend , Lumpy, asked Ra Ra , " Why are you black and he his white?" Ra Ra answered, " We are just different, but yet we are one". It was like the deepest thing I have ever heard a child say. From then on I carried this little prince around all day. He weighs a good 80 pounds, but I felt such a bond with him. I sat down with him still in my arms and began to cry, because he had fallen asleep in my arms. It was then i realized that his father really had not showed him any kind of love whatsoever towards him. I thanked God so much for the opportunity to hold Ra Ra.
 
   God is using us all in so many ways. I am finding more and more who I am in Him, but yet of course I am still as crazy as a chicken with its head cut off ( by the way i did eat chicken head). I love, love , love my God. Through these people and children I am seeing Jesus every time my eye is open. I have realized that even when i feel that i am doing nothing, I am ministering. Jesus is using me no matter what i do, I am just so happy that God's glory is being shown each and everyday. Whether it be healings, or just a smile, Jesus is showing himself. I love it. I cannot even express what I feel. The Power of God is so so strong. I just can't help but praise Him.
