Yesterday, Holly, Steven, Lucky, and I took Steven's little car and went out to Prey Veng (the village the started a church a little over a year ago). Lucky taught the kids and Ti taught the adults. It was fun because Lucky asked if the kids remembered me and they did, and I told them that I missed them so much and I told all of my friends at home about them all the time! Holly made them rice pudding with protein powder, which was good because one of the kids told Steven that he was hungry and he had only had some rice that morning.
This morning I did my laundry by hand on the roof (it's so cool! lol, but I'm sure I won't like doing it later so much, lol ;).
Today I found out that Jason (from the US) is a Calvary pastor at the boy's Water of Life home. So, we went to church there where it's taught in English and translated into Khmer. (He taught on David and Goliath, and how it is good to remember that God ALWAYS destroys the Goliaths in our lives, so that when the next one appears we need to remember God's faithfulness! :)
One thing that I am in CONSTANT remember of, is how big, tall, and white I am! LOL I know that it might seem like a small thing, but it is a battle in the mind for me. I have to take thoughts captive to the obedience of Christ and know that it doesn't matter what I look like. Whenever I walk down the street (even the 2 blocks to the boy's Water of Life) I got lots of stares! :p Ha, I'd rather that wasn't the case.
Today, after our girl's Bible study here at the girl's Water of Life, Sreynigh(sp?) gave her heart to Jesus!!! :D She is the one that lives here with the baby and wanted/wants to run and leave her baby here. She didn't want to become a Christian before, but after reading the Bible and hearing the Bible studies and stuff, she has opened her heart to GOD! :D A few days ago Holly got her a Bible and wrote in it for her.
Thank you so much for all of your prayers! (The other day Rin (staff) was praying for everyone who prays and supports Water of Life, that God would just bless you all!! :)
I am enjoying myself so much here! God is so good!!!!
God bless,
Lana
