The title of this post in English says "Dirty but very happy/content". I just got back from working many hours at another YWAM house scrubbing chairs and powerwashing them. It was so fun! But I'm covered in dirt and paint chips.
It's such an interesting thing now that I have been here for about a week and a half. People are slowly getting to know me and I them. I thoroughly enjoy watching their personalities emerge! God definitely knew what He was doing when making us all so different. Everyone has their own way of doing things and their own way of thinking.
Today we studied Ephesians 5 with small groups. I understood most of what was discussed, but I just wanted to sit back and observe the group. Some people were focused on writing down every word and highlighting it with a coordinating color. Others just wanted to get the task accomplished quickly and efficiently. haha..we are funny aren't we?
Anyway, I have enjoyed being myself more today.. Laughing and joking around...that's hard to do in a new place with a new language. But it's coming.
Thank you for your prayers!!
We are enjoying your writing. It is such a joy to see how God is working in your life and how obedient you are to His call. We will be praying for you.
