I been in Cape Town now for almost four weeks one of my favorite places to be in South Africa, Cape Town is so amazing beautiful and leaving next to the beach is so cool, that one things we don't have back home.
People still wonder what I am doing in Cape Town, I am doing a secondary school through YWAM is called SBS school of biblical studies is a nine months intense training, whereby I will read the whole bible in nine months YEAH. The training started at the end of last month and so far we have already read Philemon, Titus, Philippians, Galatians, Mark and last night started Acts. The method we use is so amazing called Inductive method. I have been learning so many good things one of them was a shocked to hear that the bible is not written to us.
I wont into more details what we are doing because is too many things and it might confusing to some people. But through this teaching God has been working in my heart, especial about my past with my Dad.I didn't had a good relationship with my dad and he didn't love me the way I wanted to see his love. Through the book of Titus 2:11 For the grace of God has appeared bringing salvation for all people. God spoke to me about that allot. That my dad didn't see the grace that was set in front of him. The best thing i learn from my dad is how to be not a good man. God is growing me into a deeper understanding of what it means to be his child.
I am in a good hands of godly leadership love my leaders and the stuff. They do pour all what they have into us and helping and challenging in learning also in knowing God. I feel safe around them to share life with.
as much as they gave us so much to work to do. I do get the opportunity to go out and minister to people sharing Gods love with people I don't know is so amazing. One of my unforgettable story about going to the community is. This past Wednesday I went to the community called Capricorn with few of my classmate and it is like 30 to 45 minutes walk. As we were walking I was complaining in mind to Jesus that is too far and why cant he provide a transport for us. In that day we also going through the book of Mark and Jesus reminded me how he use to walk to village to village and cities to spend with with people. To cut a story short I went to a house and find a young boy seating next to the door and he saw my shoe laces and he asked me who taught me how to do the way tie my shoe laces. Well i then saw an opportunity to spend time with him, show him how and i also untie his shoe laces so i can teach him how, meanwhile we do that more kids showed up and also wanted to learn. In that group of kids there was a young girls about 7 to 9 of age. We began talking and she told me about her life story and the situation at home. I then ask her if she do want to pray for her mum. She told me she cant pray and I said to her say whatever is it in your heart. She hold my hands and began praying she said few words and I couldn't hold myself I started crying. That moment there showed how much God doesn't care about how many words you say to him.
I do have many stories to share but cant write them all, I am enjoying so much what I am doing her in Cape Town and learning God's word.
friends and roommates.
Be praying that God will show me more people he want to talk to. Love and Miss you all
