Well, the time has come, school started again, and there is a lot of work to do. It has been a quiet and crazy summer. More quiet than crazy. Now school has taken over my life again, and I am not sure if this is a good thing. What I want to focus on this semester is mission. Last semester I was trying to adjust to a new life in America, in College, in the Sister’s House. But I know why I am here, so I have to do what God has told me to do. I wanted to start today with table ministry, but because of the rain that doesn’t want to stop (and has been going on the whole week) it was cancelled. I was very sad and disappointed. I had looked forward to this the whole week. I will try again next week, and I will go even if it rains. Today we also had our first YDJ meeting this semester. It was very good. This semester’s theme is God’s character. We talked about our key verse Exodus 3:14 where it says, “God said to Moses: I AM WHO I AM.” I have never really thought about these words before. “I AM” means a lot. It means God is the creator, He is incomprehensible, indescribable, faithful, true, everlasting, independent (from everything including us). We will learn more about God’s character over the course of the semester. I think it is going to be very interesting.
