As always on outreach we are reminded that we are very blessed, it's not about us, and God is good. Along with many other things that i could talk about now, but i just want to focus on this God is good thing. Especially spending time with these Korean students, i have seen that the hardest part of them understanding and believing what we tell them about Jesus and the Bible is that they don't realize that God is FOR them! God is for us. He is on our side! The reason they don't understand that God is our Shepard, Father, Provider, Protecter, Judge and our friend among many other things, is because they don't see that God is on their side. Anyways, we can tell them that God is good all we want, but the truth is that they will have to experience it for themselves. But we will have patience and we will be there when He does.

Though the world seems to forget, we will not forget who you are and what you've done for us!
Well the 1st week of the DTS school is done, and God is already doing some amazing work in the hearts of the students we are working with. We pretty much started at the beginning and explained the Gospel from God to creation to Jesus and us and everything in between. There are a lot of students that have never heard any of this, but also a few who have heard before and have really good questions. So with some students we are going deeper and some students we are starting brand new with the gospel, it is so awesome! This week we talked about hearing God's voice and how He speaks to us. We talked about having a relationship with Jesus and what that looks like and what that means. God has been speaking to our students and they are learning how to quiet themselves & get away from the things around them and listen.

So true, I think even here most people don't believe God is on our side, and instead (at best) believe he's distant and waiting for you to get it right rather than present with you at all times.
