In Lluvias de Bendicion Sarchi, there is an 11-year-old boy called David Perez Jimenez. David had been asking God for a kite. Just before opening his box, he turned to his mother and said, "I bet this is my kite." He opened his box and there inside, was his kite.
[Editor's Note: During this week of Thanksgiving I thought it would be nice to share some stories from kids and their families receiving shoe boxes from Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child. My friend Stacey Wilson from SP OCC, who has written for this blog before, was kind enough to send them to me. Even though last week was the official collection week for the shoe boxes, the organization collects and delivers them all year long. I want to encourage you to keep Samaritan's Purse, as well as all the children who receive these boxes in your prayers. That children all around the world will be led to the feet of Christ, one shoe box at a time.]
