"Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him." Colossians 3: 12-17
Every day this verse just shows comfort. I am amazed at how this verse just seems to say more and more every time it is read.
These are the words that have filled my day , "Interaction", "Joy is in the sharing", "I would ...", and "We are better than Eden".
Beautiful flowers from a friend, figuring out math, Mollie reading my book :)
It has been a little over a week, and I am finding it hard to sit down to process everthing. Trying to think about school, Korea, the kids, my friends, CHAT...
One thing that I have been loving, is writing. I am horrible at it, but I wish I could just journal everything, or have time to journal everything. I also have a book, that I have been waiting to read. I see it right now sitting on my lonely lonesome shelf, untouched, brand new, not a single page has been turned. My goal this week is to begin to read it.
Also, there are times where I just want to talk about Korea, because I haven't. I look through my pictures and see pictures of Eunice, Amy and/or Luke and I start to wonder "What are they doing?" and then I remember "Ohhh their probably all sleeping!" haha. Or, I wonder "Who is teaching them now? Does their new teacher know that Amy needs to be smiled at, or that Luke feels loved when you give him your undivided attention and when you let him teach/tell you things too? Or when you draw pictures of mountains... God has given me a lot of peace about those three weeks, but I am still learning a lot, there is still A LOT that God is showing me.
I am looking forward to a new day :)
