Cambodia. A place that’ll always stick out in my memories. I left a piece of my heart there & what endured me to the people most were the children. Little faces with eyes that looked me curiously, it only took a smile or wave for them to break into grins & decide though I was different they did indeed like me. There was one little girl in particular, Beryl Grace. I’ll never forget her sweetness! She ran up me during a conference & patted my lap. She took a million selfies on my phone, chatted away & was my pal for the rest of the day. I wish I could really express amount of times I’ve dreamed of going back & hugging her again, seeing how she’s grown.
In Cambodia I was able to experience God’s presence in a different way. I remember one service in particular as the voices of God’s people were lifted in praise. Though I couldn’t understand the words, God’s presence was evidenced I and teared up just to think – It does not matter where you go, your nationality, or the language you speak, if you are worshipping the Lord..
All barriers are let down, and suddenly none of that matters anymore.
Christ is worthy of all praise, honor and glory; when He is lifted up you see & hear Him. -Ellisa Tabb
