Small joys

Last week during my Bible Study we were talking about how to apply scripture to our lives and then I just started talking about how we can't apply it if we don't read it. I was giving practical tips on how to read scripture and the girls were taking notes! A few days later one of the girls texted me "i just found this and love it - "Immediately Jesus spoke to them. Have courage. It is I. Don't be afraid." - Matthew 14:27 It made my heart fill with joy that they are reading the Bible more and finding things they like! How glorious.

Also Jacob gave a great talk (from what I hear) to a group of men last Monday night about guarding women's hearts.  Then he met individually with several men and was able to have some great conversations with them about how to be better men and lay their lives down for their future vocations. Wonderful!

And then on Saturday Amy (FOCUS missionary) threw a late Halloween party and a LOT of students came and we just had a great time dancing to Thriller, playing charades, and laughing and having great conversations. It was a great event to win the students over. Our team went as Mario Brothers. I think we looked pretty good!




Mario, Donkey Kong, Princess Peach, Toad, and Luigi!




Off to prepare for Bible Study tonight then make dinner for my husband!
