I apologize for not writing earlier but after being sick, and Ashlee arriving, I have just been exhausted. But things are begining to fall into place here and I have to admit that I am once again feeling so extremely blessed. I was getting a little worried last week when I only had 4 hours of classes and my institute had not given me news of any more classes. I began to doubt that I would have enough hours of work. But by Thursday my schedule went up to 8 1/2 hours and by friday it was up to 10 1/2. And today, as Ashlee and I had lunch with the managers of the institute, I saw that by monday I will most likely have 20 1/2 hours which is exactly how many hours I want. So once again, I lived out the story. God tells me to trust Him. i worry anyways and doubt His provision. He comes through and provides regardless of my lack of faith. Really it is a beautiful circle we do.
So Ashlee came on friday and I was still getting over my cold so we both just slept alot. We had an interesting time on one of the mircos (the buses), but you have to ask for that story, because it is a long one. And really we have just been hanging out. We went downstairs with Sebastian last night to get some ice cream (the national Chilean food) and as we three sat on a bench and ate our ice cream, I made the comment to Ashlee that it just seemed so natural that she was there with me. It wasn't wierd at all that my friend from Cal Poly was sitting with me on a bench in downtown Santiago Chile. It just seemed natural. She and Sebastian are getting along great, which is so exciting for me to see. We are looking for a different apartment for just the three of us and we dreamed as we ate ice cream on the bench about where we wanted to live. We decided not to talk about it in front of other people. And we were suddenly laughing at ourselves because it felt like we were 8 year olds making a secret club. One of those funny moments that just led to giggling.
Anyways, I am going to go now. I can feel my schedule filling up and I need to organize my life for the week. Some of the things I will be looking foward to:
-the women's bible study I was going to in december is starting back up again after summer vacations
-I am meeting about 6 new clients of mine tomorrow for our first classes together
-I have an idea for a dinner party once a week that I am going to start up this week
-There is a worship night for the youth of Santiago (like 10 different churches on sat) that I went to in December and had a blast.
- Ashlee is here with me ALL week! And that is the biggest blessing!
May God bless you this week with a deeper knowledge of His Love for you.
