had one of those weeks where all of the 2 years of language study felt useless. had a friend over and wished the whole time that kev were there to translate because i felt so incompetent. felt like i hit a wall in class as well and found out that i am going to have to get a new teacher again. sometimes i wonder at the ways God works. that He would have me of all people to learn the most difficult language... and then i gaze up at the poem a friend gave me before we moved...taped above me here at our desk:
"now we adapt to the culture awkwardly; but He will live in it intimately; now i speak in a stammering tongue; but He will speak to the heart. and now abideth cultural adaptation, language study, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love."
awesome megan. praying for you right now.
