In your life, think about the person who loves you most. You're not allowed to simply choose Jesus. Think about the one person in your life that you can say loves you the most.
I wonder who the kids at the Harvest Care orphanage would say love them the most. When they think of that person, the love they receive will decide the depth of the love they know. It will be the depth that they can show others. It will be the depth that they measure future relationships against.

Who in your life do you think would name you as the person who loves them the most? Out of the entire world they would look at you as their worldly depth gauge for love. How deep do you love them?
In Haiti many of the kids would crawl into your arms and be able to sleep. A cherished moment for those of us who have experienced it.
It occurs to me that to some of these kids... many of them, it may not be any one person who loves them the most. But the compilation of those who have decided to go and serve that they feel love them the most. It isn't about a single person. It isn't about their mom or dad, who may no longer be alive. The person that they think love them the most are the people who show up on a weekly basis, smile, open up their arms and hold them.
The person that loves us the most is Jesus. The person or persons we have in this world that love us the most are those who show us the love of Christ the most.
