| Time for an update...
Taiwan is wonderful. I am currently teaching English camps in Hsinchu, Taiwan. I will either be in Hualien or Taoyuan this next school year, teaching English.
Camps are a blast - Extreme drama... wonderful! It is turning out to be a perfect situation - a Teresa-shaped cookie cutter!
God has given me Isaiah 41-43 as the theme chapters for this year here.
I never dreamed of being in this situation, but God definitely is orchestrating my life... His ways are higher and better than my shrimpy little dreams. It is so much fun to follow Him and watch Him at work in my life and the lives of those around me.

| This verse expresses my heart so well:
"I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength, that He considered me faithful, appointing me to His service." 1 Timothy 1:12
How gracious our Lord is. That He would even consider me, let alone appoint me to such a high position: His ministry. My eyes are swelled with tears. What an awesome thing. And He strengthens us... I pray that you would understand a little more of His graciousness and mercy in your life.

| Life: A Frosted WindowLife is can be compared to looking out a frosted window.
The frost represents trials or hardships.
We can be near-sighted, staring at the frost. Or look past the frost and focus on the beautiful scene outside.
When in a trial, we can either focus on the ourselves or we can look
past it to see the beauty God is creating through the trial.
Joseph. What a marvelous example. He looked past the
troubles and praised God for His beautiful work and how He used the
circumstances.
"You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish
what is now being done, the saving of many lives." Genesis 50:20
Joseph was able to look at the trial through God's eyes and see the good and purposes in it.
"For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,"
declares the LORD.
"As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Isaiah 55:8-9
