~ Please pray that I would have grace and patience with myself as I learn Spanish. There have been good days and frustrating days, but that I would continue to study and practice....remembering the reason for why I am doing it.
~ As I build relationships with my host family and co-workers, that God would guide those relationships despite any language barriers that may be present. That there would be understanding on both sides.
~ That God would give me His eyes, hands and feet for the year. A year feels overwhelming to me and I know there are going to be ups and downs. But a friend reminded me (and God has been confirming it to me through messages I've listened to online and my devotionals) that God knows exactly what mountains and valleys we need to go through in order to grow. When I am going through the valleys, He desires that I lean on Him and trust in His power and sovereignty in each situation. It's not about my comfort but about growth and serving those around me. I haven't hit too many valleys yet but I want to keep the mindset of giving each day to Him.
~ That I would be 100% present in each moment.
thanks guys
