Sometimes there are million words to describe what God is
doing and how He is working and other times I am in awe of Him, yet I can't put
my thoughts and feelings into words. For some of you, you are probably thinking
that I am never out of words, but it does happen on rare occasion :)
As the New Year is beginning I am coming into my final 6
months here in Swaziland,
it's been a tough time but also rewarding. Just the other day I was speaking
with the head teacher at the school I work in and she wants me to add an
additional 2 classes for me to teach Bible stories and lessons. I was shocked
and very excited at the same time. I knew she was happy with my work overall,
but many times I asked for special permission to do stuff with the children
that might disrupt the regular school schedule, she always obliged but I wondered
if it was too much. It turns out she was happy to make these concessions for me
as long as the children were getting God's Word. I am in a position to
influence an additional 45 students and I can't begin to describe how thrilled
I am. But, I am also sad to know that I will only be with these children for
half of their school year, so while I have more kids to teach it will only be
for half the time I was able to give to the previous students. Please be in
prayer as I begin this new year of teaching that the children's hearts and
minds will be open to the wonderful love of Christ.
