The days continue to go very quickly here! God has continued to bless me with new friends and relationships and encouraging growth in Spanish. This past week every night when I've gone to bed, my brain begins to think in Spanish. I speak to myself in my head in Spanish and try to conjugate verbs. It is a little annoying but I'm hoping all of this processing will amount to more growth! This week was a getting back on track week for me. I was hoping to be able to do more work in the music community but found out that I'm still to be making Spanish a huge priority. This is good as it allows me to refocus even if a little disappointing. It is exciting to be hearing the words you are learning and actually know what they mean!
Since I work on Saturdays and Sundays, Wednesday is my day off. Wednesday afternoon, Maresa and
I went to the beach. It was a beautiful time of meditation on God's love. As I watched the huge waves come crashing down I was reminded of the great love of Jesus crashing around me on all sides! God has really convicted me to get in His Word more. It has been a huge encouragement to me throughout the day. Yesterday as I was sending a message to a friend Hebrews 12:1-2 came to me very strongly. Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:1-2 Thank you Lord, for your Spirit at work within us and for your Word which is our comfort and support! As I miss family and friends, I have to lean more on God. He is continually reminding me that His love is the only love that will satisfy my deepest longing. May I be soft and moldable clay in His hands......
