Brevin’s Tender Heart

Brevin cried himself to sleep tonight- heartbroken over a boy in a UNICEF commercial. This afternoon we were watching TV and they had a commercial on about a boy who didn’t have any clean drinking water and his parents had both died. 

He came to the top of the stairs after I put him to bed with big, heaving sobs- saying that he just wanted to be there with the boy and give him a big glass of clean water. I walked him back to bed and he continued to sob for 15 minutes about him not having a mommy to take care of him and wondering how to help him. We told him that part of the money we put in the offering plate goes to help him, we told him that good organizations like UNICEF help, that God is watching over them and we can pray for them. It came back to, “I need to be there with him….when can we go and help him?”  Hope a mission trip can happen for him sooner than later.
