here it has been a sunny and 75 kind of day - loved every minute of it!!!
there is nothing i appreciate more than a good list (i LOVE lists!!!)...so here is a list of today's activities!
1. preschool- the kids did a fantastic job of naming all their colors, shapes, numbers and ABCs! it's really something to see the effort put into teaching them stuff they dont know finally begin to make sense in their heads!! we completed our "letter of the day" crafts project - today was letter Z! way to go, my little learners!!!
2. started a Bible study / prayer group with the ladies working here at the James Place. i was somewhat nervous about leading the group, but really felt the Lord urging me to do this- and it was SO GOOD! we read through 1 Corinthians and then spent some time in prayer, mainly lifting up Tina for healing and strength! i am still so blown away by how much Tina is loved by these people. very excited for her to return and to get to serve with her here!!
3. helped make rugs with a few of my close friends from the sewing class on Wednesdays - we four sat in the front yard, weaving pieces of fabric into the bags, chatting and soaking up the sunshine!
4. led a Bible study for twenty+ women in Masese this afternoon- it was one of those praise times when you don't feel your hands lifted to the sky but they are! Masese is such a dark place, full of suffering and fear- but it is evident that the Lord is at work there when you see these women's faith. they are women of God for sure!
5. got treated to a delicious Chinese dinner by Trey- had some good chats and so enjoyed hearing him talk about the ministry and his mom!
6. came back to the James Place (got to ride a bota home and LOVED IT!!!) and spent part of the night with Juliana, watching "the show"- a Indian soap opera! very intertaining.
7. answered prayer- then Juliana had to find her passport and so she and i literally tore apart her whole room trying to find it.
after several hours of searching we collapsed on the bed, feeling exhausted and defeated. i remembered what my mom always had said, "if you've lost something, pray it will be found!!" so i called out that in Jesus's name, the passport would show up....
not five minutes later, after looking inside a small green bag for the third time, what should i pull out of an envelope but Juliana's passport!!!
i know it may not seem that exciting, but let me tell you- we were jumping up and down with joy!!!
and that concluded another blessed day here in Jinja!
