First Day Teaching

Today, I was introduced to my students and they all told me their English names. I have some students with strange names such as: Mini, Mars, and Rain. But they are so adorable and they are SHY!!!!! They are very shy about speaking in English and hopefully I will be able to break them of that. My first challenge to conquer!

God is Good All the Time

Our Bible study group worked through a video series based of the book "This was Your Life" which is really excellent. I have read the book twice and watched the video series! It is REALLY good! One of the craziest points in the book was that every sin begins with the suspicion that God is not good. Our minds are a constant battle field of good and evil, but the moment that we think that God is not good is the moment that sin begins to grow.

Be Courageous!

Courageous means to face something dangerous or scary without fear! I am reminded that in the Bible Joshua faced terrifying battles and obstacles.

Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9
