In our short stay here with the Haitian people we have learned a lot about their culture, work ethic, and their love for God. How humbling to see a people that have so little, but yet live abundantly. One specific occasion comes to mind when handing out a love bundle early this week. A young boy of maybe 7 received his bundle and he continuously repeated saying, "Thank you Jesus, Thank you Jesus". For something that was so small, he was so thankful, and gave God the glory. Yet in our own lives we take so much for granted and feel so entitled to everything we have and even want. This little boy taught many of us a valuable lesson in gratitude.
