A break through!

Yesterday I was once again.. not.. looking forward to class. But God does have a sense of humor because through my complaining I had a great time in class. For the first time I was able to share with my students about my religion and what SDA's believe. I mean there were some looks towards me that was as if I was the weirdest girl in the world. But I was so exicted to tell about what I belived and why we as SDA's go to church on Satuday, how we know when we see if it will be Him, and why we do the things we do or not eat the things we don't. It was So exciting! you know you always hear of these moments and wonder.. "Will I be ready to stand up for what I believe in and tell others about Jesus?" Well last night with my 6pm class I know that I have sparked some interest in our religion! and I even invited them to come to church with me. Im just praying that they will continue to ask questions and that God will guide and direct me and our conversations. And you know that funny thing is? It took only 15 minutes of my time out of the 24 hour day to spark and deliver an interest to lead and teach about my Jesus!! God is amazing. Pray for me with the spark being started in my students to hopefully grow into fire for Him!
