Princesses of the King!

Princesses of the King!









Have you ever seen a young girl that has lost her sparkle? She's lost that infectious love for life and engaging smile that young girls just seem to possess. We often see young women in our community, worn down by constant disappointment and hardship, that stop believing their beauty and worth are found in God. They forget that they are "daughters of the King" and "His princesses."
Last weekend, I saw that special sparkle return and shine brighter then ever for three of our Leaders in Training girls. We are so blessed at Mission Adelante to have volunteers that desire to share their lives, time, hearts, and even weddings with our kids! Karlie and Adam, two volunteers that have served together at Kids Adelante, invited three of the young girls they have done Bible study with to be flower girls in their wedding. Karlie and Adam's relationship and fear of the Lord has been an amazing example to our kids of purity, faithfulness, and absolute joy.
It was an incredible experience for the girls as they wore beautiful white dresses and participated in the most sacred of days. They felt like princesses and I can't express how proud and honored I felt to be part of such a special day in the eyes of God with them.
Please pray with me that God will continue to redeem the worth of our young women and remind them that they don't need to belong to a guy, their friends, or even the world. They are HIS princesses!
