Is anything too hard?

Well, let me see....things that are hard! Over the past week we have been meeting with people, mainly college age students. We have been assigned to talk to them and ask questions about their culture. So, it has been difficult for me because I am not a talker! But, I am slowly making progress. We also started English class this week, so things have been kind of crazy. I am helping in an Intermediate Class with one of the other students. It has been going really great! We have 4 students, and they know so much! We thought we would be teaching basic, but they know way more than basic. We teach half the time and then just talk with them the other hour.
This past Saturday we rode buses all over the city and tried talking to people. There weren't too many younger looking people out and about but I did talk to a girl named Miriam. That was really good; hopefully we will be able to talk to her more.
Something that I have been learning is to not count my life so dear to me. Sometimes I get in to the habit of what I want to do with my life, but it isn't about what I want. It is about what He wants to do with me. So, pray that I will be closer drawn to Him.
I am sorry for not writing much in the past week. Like I said, things have been crazy here, but I truly believe that God is working. Continue to pray that we would be courageous and not be ashamed of the Lord. Also pray that we would be able to build these relationships that we have made so far.
