Hey ya'll!!!! What's up! Not much here! Bet ya thought I would never update! So did I! lol!! Jk! I just haven't had to much time to sit down and write! So how's life with all!? Things are pretty good here! Just getting into the swing of things, with classes and all!! We've had some really great speakers! The first week, Loren Cunninghum, the second week was Joe someone and he talked about God's love! And that was something I needed to hear! Like I know in my head that God loves me, but I didn't get it fully in my heart HOW MUCH He loves me! I'm still trying to understand it! And this week a guy named Steve from Columbia South America is talking about street kids!! That stuff is CRAZY!!! But it's good that he's filling us in on things we are going to see, and not sugar coating it! He was telling us one story how he knows a grandmother over there at the age of 28! The age were most people have there 1st or 2nd child maybe...and she's a grandmother!! Wow! And also just talking about how street kids will sleep under newspaper to keep warm and sleep under overhangs to stay dry and people will beat them to make them leave and even some cops will pour gasoline and light a match! Breaks your heart, huh!? But he also has been teaching us that the reason we helps these kids or anyone for that matter doesn't need to be for the kids, pressure, ministry, passion, for yourself....it needs to be about glorifing His Holy Name!! And if at anytime you wonder, "Why am I even here, What am I even doing" and you just feel like you can't figure this stuff out that we need to remember that it's not about us, we're being obedient to Christ, and bringing glory to His name! If you're out working with street kids just to work with them or cause a passion or whatever....ask God to change it to being about Him! This is a great, wise man! With a real passion and love for the street kids! Because God gave him that passion and love! So I'm real excited about the rest of the week and the follow weeks after! I'm also exciting to see my parents and brother! And to get off this island! lol! See some other things besides this campus!! lol! Well anyways...I'm gonna go! I love ya'll tons and I hope to talk to you soon!!! Take care! Stay strong!
