LOVE 4 THE CHILDREN

   April is over now. What can we say if we sum up all that we’ve had for this month. I frequently meet the kids with a low self-esteem, kids who don’t believe they can reach any success in life. Kids from orphanages often face insults that prevent their personalities from developing and improving. Living life like this they often have a distracted image of what real life is. I sometimes come to an idea that orphanages produce the generation of so-called “consumers” and everybody owes them. Kids have difficulties with time management and keep on living without making any effort just because they have no family and as if only the government is charged to take care of them.
This month we’ve read the book of Daniel. We’ve had 4 classes: “The lost childhood”, “Daniel’s trials”, “Daniel and lions”, “ The words on the wall”. We discussed that Daniel also was an orphan. Daniel had a lot of trials and troubles and God helped him out. Another problems between the kids is betrayal. The example of friends Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego was very vivid for kids. The story of a miraculous salvation of Daniel from lions was a good one to remind that God can help to overcome all the difficulties. The discussions encouraged kids to think over their lives and show them the life full of victories and deeds with God. When the discussions are over and we start removing things to leave some kids sometimes come to me and share their impressions about the Bible studying. It’s great they get hope for a better future. They start at least setting goals for life and looking for the ways of achieving them. Let’s pray so that the Word they’ve heard could produce a great fruit in their lives.
