Felicidad
Happiness.
How is it so easy for me to lose the happiness that I so long for? How is it so easy to pass through each without the joy that is supposed to be flowing from my life?
It is so easy for me to just push off another day of talking with God, and the more I do so, I feel guilty. The joy and love that I need seem so far from me, but I feel unworthy to come back to the place I need to be. I’m scared that I will be met at arms-length with a hesitant welcome. However, these thoughts so obviously do not come from the one who is waiting for me, waiting to fill me with his love—the one who will welcome me with open arms and give me a joy that comes from nowhere else in the world.
Kusi is the Quechan word for Happiness, joy, and contentment, which could not better describe this place. The pure joy, love and happiness that I see here in Angel and Rosa the house parents and even in the boys at times is so evidentially an overflow of what God has poured into their lives.
My prayer is that my life would be an outpouring of the love and joy that Christ has shown to me—so that the people I come in to contact with have no doubt who my heart belongs to.

Anyone who meets you will have no doubt who your heart belongs to. You would not be able to do all you do if it were not for the grace and compassion showered on you by our Lord. The joy you have in Him makes your happiness complete.

From one who has been blessed to share in the happiness of Kusi with you xx
