Recently I clearly saw God’s love displayed when God's people from La Vega church came to work along with us in a common goal of providing VBS for the children of Isopo. It was incredible. When we got together on Wednesday to plan the lessons for the weekend we discussed how we would best work together. They took the lead. We would provide activities and would share the responsibilities of leading songs and prayer. Yet after arriving at those awesome plans, God had some that were even better. We held to the plans for the first night, but the second, the people from La Vega completely took over, which was awesome to watch! It was wonderful to get to work along side them and we learned so much from each other. But better than that, we have developed a relationship and have grown to love each other a lot more. Our common goal of loving the children in Isopo brought us together in a love greater than either of our groups could provide alone.
“Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.” 1 John 4:7-8
