No, that title is not a reflection of my grammar skills. If I remember correctly, it is a line from a song. It came to mind as I was thinking about my morning. Last Monday afternoon 3 girls had asked me to come teach them English and the Bible on Monday mornings because they have school in the afternoon and can't join that group. I wasn't sure if they would remember or would come out this morning.
I sat in the beautiful sunlight a few minutes before the appointed time of 10 am, and a curious woman from one of the apartments came and sat near me and asked about why I was there. After a few minutes, she said, "Oh. Here comes a girl who seems to know you. It looks like they did remember." Her words were music to my ears! Myrna approached, carrying the little notebook that I had given them to write their English vocab. Soon Daniela joined us, and we found a spot in the shade and began.
It was such a blessing to have this time with these girls. I pray that God will pour Himself into their lives through me and that they will begin to read the Bibles I gave them. Also praying that the fact that I will be out of town next week won't cause the group to end but that they will come the following week, as they agreed to do this morning.
Not only is 2 out of 3 not bad, I'd say it is fabulous! I am continuing to pray that the other girl, Yuritzi, will join us next time and that they will invite a few other friends as well.
