Don't be afraid
Lately God has been saying over and over again, "Don't be afraid." I think it is an echo that I have been ignoring because I don't want to admit I am afraid. I think that not being able to speak fluently has affected me much here. I have no confidence to stand and talk to people about anything. Even though we speak French we speak mostly English, and only say one or two sentences to others when we want something. I have been learning stories. Creation to Noah. I don't have much time to explain all that's going on...pray for courage and obediance.

Thats really awesome that you are learning stories. All day yesterday, I learned about Chronological Bible Storying. Such as amazing way to reach people. I really think this way is extremely effective in evangelism- especially with tribes! I think we are going through the same thing. I am having a hard time adjusting to Spanish. Some days I get so frustrated that I just want to cry. The phrase that God has put on my heart is "be strong and courageous"(Joshua 1). Love you!
hey rachelle
i want you to know that i think it's great you are in france! i will be praying for you. i know you will be talking circles around the naitives in no time. i can imagine it is tough, maybe sometime i will go to some french speaking place and i will be able to relate fully. i am finally back to a-town. it feels nice. sounds like your loving God which is all you can ask for.
