Wednesday was my last day teaching the Girls Club at MCA for the year.  The school is closing for a two month break in just two weeks.  It was sad telling the girls that have been a part of the Club that this was the last meeting until the first of the year.

We have been talking about what it looks like to make good choices as young girls, 4th and 5th graders, and we have explored the 10 commandments along with the commands in the New testament, Love God, Love Others.  For the last day I taught from Psalm 119:9 and Proverbs 3:5 to try and encourage them to be pure and stay in God's Word.  As the girls finished up some of their coloring projects I took the opportunity to pray individually with each girl.  As they came, one by one, and sat next to me I tried to look in their eyes and tell them that I love them and that God loves them.  Then I asked them what I can pray for and most of them said to pray that they would do well on their upcoming test. And then there were a few girls that asked for more personal requests, like, my dad is in prison and it's hard on my family, and pray God can forgive the bad in me, and pray that I can understand the Bible more.  It was a joy to pray with them and I truly hope it will encourage them in their lives.

Life is too short to not share Jesus everywhere you go and to all you come in contact with.  We just don't know what tomorrow will bring.  Some of these girls come from very bad home situations and I'm just not sure the amount of love that they feel.  I am blessed to be a part of their lives and show them that Jesus loves them and cares for them.

Will you please pray for these girls, that they will come to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior?
