Learning another language is so difficult, but to put it into perspective it isn’t nearly as difficult as teaching 34 hormone raging inner-city kids. But nevertheless, it is difficult. I have good days and I have bad days. Good days include me actually communicating (stumbling and bumbling word order and verb conjugation) but the person I’m speaking with appears to understand. Then there’s the bad days, honestly, I have those more often, I am looked at like I’m an idiot or I’m laughed at or just given a questioning look. This is such a humbling process. Thankfully, it’s a constant reminder of my weakness. I don’t say that in an arrogant way, I really needed some humbling.
Brian and I saw Prince Caspian this weekend. It was a great movie. My faithlessness was filled with a reminder of God’s might and amazing power. The imagery in the movie provided me with a great mental picture of God’s power. He has the power to enable me to learn another language and also take care of my family. He has the power to provide the financial resources this team still needs. He’s all-powerful……the end.
