The beauty of a smile
I work with kids that have several types of special needs. I work with students who have down syndrome to students with traumatic brain injury. In my six years they have transformed me into the man I am today. There is no smile more beautiful, even when it is sometimes a mischievous one, :). I cannot tell you how many times God has used my students to make me smile. They have no problem with letting you know how excited they are to see you, but it always comes back to their smile. God is so amazing in how he creates us, that even in this imperfect world, where bad things can happen, there still He shines through the smile of one of those who are less fortunate. When God wants to show you His face it is never far. God smiled at me tonight at dinner, my friends daughter, who has down syndrome, was so awesome and her smile took me to that same place, letting me know how much God loves us. Perfection is in the eye of the beholder and I can tell you in God’s eyes all of His children are perfect. I am thankful for a God who shows me His face everyday by the smiles I get from all the kids I work with and come across in my everyday life. Hallelujah, for the beauty of a smile.. SELAH!
