Are You Crazy!?

Currently, I work in a childcare center with toddlers full-time; my ongoing goal is to find a way to communicate God’s love to them in a way that they can understand. That’s often through singing songs, reading stories, and playing pretend. The other day, we were singing “He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands”, and at the end of the song we were talking about how BIG God’s hands must be if he can hold the WHOLE world! And to that, one of my little ones held out her hands and responded, “my hands are really little.”
 

Dan and I frequently have people ask us WHY we would give away all our possessions, move away from all our friends and family, and leave all the comforts of America. Why would you move to a country that you’ve never been to, to work in a culture (Deaf culture) that’s foreign to you, within another foreign culture (Romanian), neither of which you know the language? People tell us that we’ve got to be crazy, or that they think we’re really adventurous.
