"
He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."Many people who came to receive a wheelchair recognized God's provision and caring. This prompted a response from them. It was not uncommon to see Peruvians, N.Americans, workers, and receivers, shedding tears as they recognized that the chairs were only symbolic of God's love.
As I watched some of the fearful, hurting, stoic people with disabilities enter the work area, I was able to see a transformation take place. With the various kindness of Peruvian workers, combined with the help from us, the fear dissolved; the hurt lessened as a burden was shared; the stoicism turned to tender hearts.
In my heart, a change was occurring as well. I realized more fully that God was in the business of changing lives. Tears, those of joy, welled up and spilled over. Our God is an awesome God.
