After years of experience, Brenda was faced with a challenge in Sunday School. However, she just didn’t know how to 36 it in a good way. She had never been asked to teach a child quite like Cindy!
Cindy, you see, was 37 . She came from a broken home. And although she was really
38 , she thought she was so bad that she could not be successful. 39 , Cindy needed care, and most of all, Cindy needed love! There just had to be a way of 40 her. Day after day, Brenda would pray for Cindy, yet Sunday would come and go and she saw 41 , if any, change.
Then one day Brenda asked Cindy if she could 42 a role in a Christmas programme the children were 43 to do. Cindy’s answer was, “Don’t you think you can find someone better than me?”
“Better than you?” came Brenda’s 44 . “What makes you think there is 45 better than you?”
“Well, I’ve 46 been asked to do anything before because I’m not good. I won’t get the part 47 and then everyone will be mad at me for messing up(弄糟)their 48 ,” came Cindy’s answer.
“Oh, Cindy,” said Brenda in a 49 voice. “I am so 50 that you think that, but you are so wrong. Don’t you realize how 51 you are?”
“No,” 52 a reply in a low voice because Cindy was now in 53 .
“But Cindy, in my eyes, you are special and you can also do somethin g well like others,” Brenda said.
“Really? Do you think so really? Thank you, Miss Brenda! Nobody has believed in me like you. 54 I’ll have a try,” said Cindy as she 55 a hug from her teacher for the first time!
