I was terrified and thought the kids in the schools would eat me up for breakfast and destroy the little self esteem I had left. But through God’s insistent lessons to trust Him, I got up in the classroom and shared the Gospel, and grace always flooded me. The Team would go into a school, knowing full well how human and broken we were and we would see Jesus Christ work miracles in the kids. From seeing this sort of thing happen time and time again, I learnt to know Jesus would always come and work powerfully in His little children, simply because we stepped out in faith and believed in His love for kids. I learnt to love and to be loved.
