Pavement Project put to use

This week I’ve gotten to start using the pavement project with some of our kids.  It makes it totally worth it all the time that we put in learning the process and the stories.  I love getting to sit with them and talk to them about Jesus and how he is near them in their sadness and how special they are to Him.

Their pictures are so telling.  They draw a picture before and after that shows what they compare themselves to in that moment.  One child this week drew a deer at the beginning.  This deer was lonely and sad and running alone through the mountains.  At the end he drew a sheep that was near the shepherd and had been found by Him.

I’m so thankful for this tool that the Lord put in our hands!
