Opportunities

Before I came to Korea I said that the two places I would like to go and visit would be China and Thailand. God has just opened up doors for both these locations.

I will be going to Shanghai and Beijing, China over the Lunar New Year Break (February 17-25). I will also be going to Phuket, Thailand on a missions trip over Spring Break (March 24-31).

Praise the Lord.......He made a way for me to go to both places that were on my heart. However, if you have been reading my blog since the beginning you will realize that the three other places I applied to schools at were: Indonesia, China, and Thailand. Those are also the three countries God has made a way for me to visit while teaching in Korea. I just find it interesting and so like God........I am going to end up with a stamp in my passport from all the locations I inquired about in the beginning of this journey.

I also have two possible opportunities with orphanages. One here in Seoul and another in Indonesia. Seoul would be for now, and Indonesia would be for in the future. But both are in God's hands. I have been inquiring about orphanages since I got here, it is only a step but at least finally a place to start.

I have also been a part of a weekly Bible Study at Church which has been a great place to meet the Risen Lord. And it made a way for me to meet the family I wrote about who shared at church about adopting a child in China in a precious blog.

I have the opportunity to work out with a coworker after school. And God has given my class so many opportunities to grow and spread God's Joy. I am also thankful for the opportunity to see God work through the lives of others, especially in Noah Steven's blog.

And the most important of all is the opportunity He has given me in meeting Him in so many different ways. The opportunity I have here to draw closer to Him like never before, He is truly ALL I have here. The opportunity to embrace all the moments He has placed before me, especially the ones where I am growing and learning more about Him.

For all these opportunities I am so thankful. Thank you Lord.
