#1 - He will carry my load

Here is my #1 blog post of all time...

I know this is late in coming, but I've been beaten by the African internet connection yet again, and cannot re-upload the video. It's not as fun, but please follow this link to enjoy Varbah singing, "He will carry my load." 
Original Post - July 22, 2009

*This video was taken in November, 2008. Varbah used to live in an orphanage that was a horrible place. No adults, small children, including Varbah, doing the washing, cooking, cleaning, taking care of the even smaller children and not going to school. Varbah and her friends were always dirty, always sick, always lonely. (Gives new, deeper, meaning to He will carry my load, huh?) Finally, in June of 2010 that orphanage was closed. The children were divided into several different orphanages. Nine of them, including Varbah, were admitted to a brand new boarding school.*
Varbah, Christmas 2011.
Today -- Varbah is in school, growing, healthy, happy.

I was so moved by this beautiful little girl - this gives new meaning to carry my load - it puts so much into perspective.
