Part of the family

As of today (July 7), we have 24 days left in Thailand. One week will be spent in southern Thailand, and three days of it will be in northern Thailand. This being said, I only have one week of classes left teaching here in BKK! This seems very overwhelming, yet really excited to see how the Lord is going to work through us in our time remaining here.

He has already shown us so much from putting students in our path that we can form friendships with to showing us the city life is for us. To placing us here in BKK with great people who love the Lord and their families yet are choosing to live here intentionally. These families are individually amazing because despite their own sin struggles or difficulties with family members and raising kids they CHOOSE to live here among the Thai people so a great need of people knowing English will be filled while also telling them who the Savior-King is. I have such high respect for each couple here. They have truly treated us like family- even cooked for us on the 4th of July so we would feel a little more at home. Countless times they have given us rides places and sitting in the back hearing the chatter among the kids and the parents makes me feel apart of the family.

Lord, Thank you for designing the body of Christ in the way that when we aren’t physically with our loved ones back home we still feel part of a family because of the blood of Christ.
