Prison Chaos

This week has been absolutely crazy with everything. Monday comes a long and we start our first real week of our DTS. Everything is going great learning a lot. Monday night someone was talking about how they came home sick from Sweden. And I was bragging how I never got sick. The very next morning i woke up SICK! So tuesday its not so bad and then I wake up Wednesday with a fever and I felt like if I went back to sleep it would be no surprise to me if I woke up and I was in heaven. So I'm dragging around all day feeling sick, and in the middle of the day after class two staff members come up in front of the class and say there has been a LICE BREAK OUT! My first thought was really? I'm sick and now I might have lice. so everyone had to be checked... I'm lice free just to let you all know. and hopefully it stays that way:)
First week of teaching is done! I am mentally exhausted right now and really thankful for this wonderful Saturday. But the teaching was amazing we looked at "The Father Heart of God" and it was so eye opening about the love God truly has for all of us it say in Deuteronomy 32:10 tells us that we are the apple of His eye. We are in his eyes and there's a special place in his heart for us that was made just for us no one else. Our God is such an intimate and loving Father, and we are in His heart as He is on our hearts. He gave us full to his heart so we could know him more and more. And I gave him my heart so he can know me better. This week has been so eye opening to how much the Father loves me, and all the things I have done, He loves me. And that same love he has for me He has for you. He truly is the perfect Father, and I know he loves me and would never let me go from his heart. The Bible goes on and on in numerous places where He, God, describes his love for us countless times. And we truly see His love when we look at the cross, and know that the Father sent Jesus to die for our sins so we could be seen as pure in the eyes of God. Is that not amazing?

I just thought I would share with all of you what I've been learning this week. Thanks to everyone for being encouraging, keeping me in your prayers, and supporting me. Means so much to me:)
