Meet Tim. Some guy we met at the beach found him and he was a little upset when the guy tried to pick him up (which is illegal). So Sharon and I just hung out with him for a bit and watched him swim around. Amazing how many animals live here!
Classes are great! We have a different topic each week and this week it was hearing and obeying God's voice. It's something that I've never really put a whole lot of thought into. YWAM is super charismatic, which I knew, but I guess I just wasn't prepared to jump into it so quickly. I've never experience anything like it. People actually hear God's voice. The more I think about it, it seems okay and pretty biblical, but I'm really just not used to it. Or prophesy. It's crazy. It's hard to explain my feelings about the whole thing. I think it will take some getting used to.
Worship is really charismatic too. I'm used to people just singing and maybe raising their hands when they're really into it, but people here dance and shake and all this stuff. It's a little weird, but more freeing. I love seeing people really meaning what they're saying and just on fire for God. I'm definitely not used to doing it myself yet. I'll dance a little, but that's about as far as I'll go. Maybe I'm just really aware of people around me.
We all have work duties every day. It's scheduled from 3-5 but mine never takes that long. I clean our classroom (sweep, mop, dust, empty garbages, etc.) with two other girls and it usually only takes us around half an hour. I kind of feel bad, but then again really thankful for the extra time to just rest for a while.
The food has gotten a bit better. It's all loaded with preservatives which isn't the greatest, but we've been having more rice and plain meat. There are a lot of Koreans here so we have asian food pretty often, which is usually okay to eat. I found a health food store which makes me relieved. I didn't think they would have anything. Obviously, it's crazy expensive, but I'm glad it's there just in case.
Some of the lectures from class are available online if you're interested in what I'm learning. Click here if you want to.
I'll work on getting some more pictures up soon.
Let me know if there's anything I'm forgetting to tell you or anything you're curious about.
