I can remember when I was little and I was like My Hero is Spiderman, Okay so maybe not spiderman but you get the point.
Running on three hours of sleep I started thinking about some things. And I was typing a scholarship paper. And the topic was name one person who has made a significant difference in your life. I was having a hard time thinking about who to write about. So I ended up just getting on the computer and looking around. So as I was just checking my mail and wasting time til I had to write this, I went to Andrew's Caring Bridge Site.
I read the new Journal Entry and it occurred to me.
This sweet and innocent Child is my hero.
Most of you know that I have problems just letting go and letting God's will be done. But today the journal entry just got me.
If only I could have faith like this Child. The hardships he goes through, the pain he deals with, and the frustration he perseveres through. It all amazes me. He still has full faith in God. He KNOWS that God will take care of him.
So when I write my paper today, I'm not going to write about Ghandi or George Bush. I'm going to write about this amazing nine year old I know. So Andrew this blog is for you kid, you are my true hero. :)
