Time Change

Ok, so the time changes during the summer in North Africa. This morning I was awakened by the other girls who had gotten up due to the fact that our "house-mom" told us that there was a time change last night!! So, actually we all woke up an hour later than what we actually thought. So, 2 of the girls were late for Arabic class and the other one was late for teaching an English class!

And for my Arabic class, we discussed what our teacher believes in. It was a very interesting discussion. I didn't really say a whole lot, mainly because I don't care for discussions, but the others in my class did a great job. I was just there as a praying friend. Seriously keep our teacher in your prayers as you pray for myself and the other students. I really believe that the Lord is doing a work in his heart, but because he grew up Muslim there are a lot of things we need God to break down. (Some of his beliefs, we need God to break down.) He is open to what we have to say, but there are just some things that we don't agree on, which make it very difficult to talk about.

Tonight, my friend and I discussed Motivation in our English class. Our students answered the questions very well. (Some of them I was like wow that's great!) But, I can just see how they do things so they will feel good and to make their names great. I guess that may be because of how they've been raised-Muslim. But there were some questions that they answered, and I was like wow!! It put me to shame.

Continue to pray for me while I am here. Pray that I would make friends with some girls here, and pray that I would be able to witness to some of them. Before I close, I will tell you about the experience I had with a girl named Sara. She's a college-aged student; she's a true college-aged girl. So, another friend and I talked to her and another girl named Nora. While my friend talked to Nora, I was able to talk to Sara a little bit. I tried explaining Christ to her. I could tell though that she really didn't want to hear about the Lord at that point. Just pray that the Lord would soften her heart to the Gospel. Her name is Sara.
