Yes, I am a English teacher. Those of you who know me will know that I have no English teaching skills. I do not even speak English properly and my spelling is a mess. So it was very funny to me that God would give me this ministry.
Teaching English class is definitely out of my comfort zone. It's funny how God does things. How He will call us to things that seem impossible to achieve. He often calls us to things that don't make since or we know we cannot do. That's when we have to decide to trust Him. We have to decide to have faith in Him. There is nothing is to hard for God and if we trust Him and step into what He ask us to do, He will show up. God has been helping me everyday as I teach. Everyday, I give Him the glory cause I know without Him I can not do this.
It has only been a week since we started teaching. I already love my students. I love making the lessons, trying to find ways to challenge them, and seeing them learn. Friday we gave them their first test. It was the weirdest feeling. I was walking threw the classroom waiting for them to finish and I was so excited to see how they did. I was hoping they did good and I couldn't wait to find out. I could remember being a student and hating test and the teachers always saying I want you to do good. I want you to learn it means I'm doing a good job. For the first time that statement made so much since. I am so proud of these kids they are so smart and I really want to help them learn.
Each lesson we incorporate the Bible somehow since most of the people are Buddhist you can't just have a Bible class but we can put it into are lessons and it's cool knowing that it plants seeds in these kids. We get to be some of the first examples they have of Christians. Ywam is just starting this school it's not even built yet and we get to be part of the beginning of something great. God is so awesome! I am excited to see how the rest of are month goes and how God uses us to pour into these kids.
