Inspiring...

... and humbling. How often do I make excuses when I feel a burden for hurting people or a longing to chase after my passion? Here is the story of someone who just went. To Uganda. To love on impoverished children and take in orphans. She didn't just send money- she went. She didn't wait until the timing seemed perfect- she first went at 16, and went back indefinitely after just one year in college. Now she is 20 and has 13 Ugandan orphans calling her Momma. And 400 kids are now able to go to school, eat two hot meals a day, and receive minor medical care. Because she saw the bigger picture. She saw the need. And she did something (huge) about it.

Someone posted a link to her blog on a discussion thread earlier today, and I haven't been able to stop thinking about it. Click the button below to learn more about the ministry, based out of Brentwood, TN. I'm just finding out about it, so I'm not (yet) endorsing it or asking for people to support it. But check it out. I dare you. And try not to feel amazed. unsettled. inspired...
