So this week I am learning about teaching EFL. I have lots of homework, which I guess is ok because it helps :)
I won't bore you with all the details, but I will tell you this: there is a lot of information packed into this schedule, and I am learning a LOT. It is a little exhausting, though. Please pray for me and the other missionaries in training as we are learning. Please pray that we are prepared as much as possible to leave for our respective locations all over the world.
It is not official yet, but I was given with some degree of confidence an estimate of the end of July for me to know when exactly I can leave for Macau. As soon as I get the green light, I will book my ticket and then leave!
Thursday I should find out if I am fully funded or not. I also have some more fundraising lined up, and I am excited, because if I were to go over my 100% mark, that money will go towards next year. I am also looking at adding language learning to my financial profile, which will up the expense a little: plus it's just an estimate, and the real cost of the year will vary with plane ticket prices and such.
Anyway, a little too much logistics.
I had a not so great day yesterday, and my friend Samantha posted this video on her blog (linked with her name!). It made my day a lot better, because it reminded me that God is always there with me, holding me tight, and comforting me. Read Psalm 23 to see a similar example right from the Bible!
This reminder through the lyrics plus the upbeat tune cheered me up, and I was dancing around my hotel room for about 10 minutes replaying this song.
Step out of your comfort zone and dance around to this song, all the while remembering that God comforts us so much, and that He is always there to hold us tight!
