FAITH INDEED CAN MOVE MOUNTAINS!!!
I always knew God will provide!!, before coming to B* which i already had the burning desire to reach out to the kids. And the thought just keep on my mind, and impressed my heart. That after a few days coming back from B* which i went on vacation with friends, i knew i wanted to go back and must. The doors also kept opening with immediate responds from the people i contacted over here. ( And also considering their internet connection is so slow, and technology is not big ) So i decided to sign up for a TEFL course. ( I didn't think it necessary, but i guess it was something that gave some what a sense of security and friends and family would be like more understanding and acceptive, which i figured now, wasn't really important at all. It was already strange telling people i was going to B*.. and not really having a plan conceived )
So, anyway, long story short. TODAY is my 3rd day here, and i met up with T*, she is a missionary here with her husband and they do mainly ministry to the children in poverty, providing free education as well as food! ( I didn't really know this prior to contacting her on email, all i knew was that she was a pastor, which she isn't really but a missionary ! ). She and her husband were also teachers for 20 years before starting to do mission work!!! Its so amazing to see that because i am also a teacher turn missionary! I can't believe i am a missionary now!, I've always wanted to, but i never did know how.
At first i decided to find a job here while doing missions, but after talking to Tori, i realized that with the work needed to be done, i would have to commit full time and be a missionary! Its so amazing, after talking to her for a few long minutes, she offered me a place to stay for quarter the price and also will guide me along the way for becoming a missionary as well as how to gain financial support as i would mainly be working for free. And that God will provide. And i believe i will learn so much from them. Suddenly everything just came into place! I am unbelievably grateful to God! Even though the room which they will be giving me is not the nicest.. i guess mission work is not about getting the best for myself but humbly be glad and receiving :) May God teach me to be content in all things!
Tomorrow i move in with the B's !* Till then :) Thanks for reading!~
