THOUGHTS

Right now, I'm very tired. I'm afraid of falling asleep if I do I may wake up only on Saturday. Its been awesome and highly energy consuming. I am still trying to adapt to my room, I haven't sat in here like this for days, it's just looking strange. But despite this I am reminded that tomorrow morning, Rotji Joseph, Chief Librarian of Jenta Reads Community Library will be in the library from morning till evening trying to serve people, FOR FREE. Rotji has been serving and doing this for several months now and he has never received any payment or asked for it. Rotji is the true symbol of Jenta Reads.

We made the point to talk about the lady who swept the library one particular morning. This kind neighbor went to the library on that particular day and swept it. She did that at about 6:00 AM or so when the library wasn't open, there was no way we would have known (except that someone had slept in the library).

This lady did this without seeking any recognition, without seeking permission and without any form of compulsion.

This lady is the perfect story of Jenta Reads. Its a story about different people from different places, asking the question, WHAT CAN I DO FOR JENTA?. I am reminded again of a mother in the community who donated some chairs after noticing we needed some chairs.

A friend of mine messaged to say he is willing to design a plan for the library for free. This is what all this is about. It's about WHAT YOU CAN DO and to do it selflessly. The simple question WHAT CAN I DO FOR JENTA? Has driven the vision for the past year.

The beauty of God's grace is that it is available for anyone who opens up to be used.

WHAT CAN YOU DO FOR OTHERS?
