God continues to work here no matter what state we are in. A few weeks ago, right before I came home to renew my visa, I was honestly yelling at my class and Gabriel came up to me and said “I don’t believe in God, can you explain Him to me,” and I told him we would talk in 20 minutes at lunch so we could focus on the conversation without the other students being in the room. We sat down and I walked him through who God is, who Jesus is, and how He made it possible for us to be reconciled to Him (all of this conversation was in Spanish to make sure he didn’t miss any part, and I used smaller words for reconciled). I asked him if he wanted to give his life to Christ and he said yes without hesitation. Since then we have been having a bible study with 3 other boys during lunch almost every day. God is so good. I had lost my patience with my kids and He saved one of them. He doesn’t need anyone here to work here. He just wants us to obey, and I am thankful that He used me and gave me such an amazing opportunity to share His love, and at the same time reminded me that I am here to share His love in action, and not just in words.
