January 5, 2010 and it's time for French language studies to resume. We have heard that this semester is a lot tougher so admittedly there is some anxiety.
We have blocks of time for which we are required to do clean up in the building we stay in. This also includes shovelling the snow. This week is our week and it has decided to snow a lot. We have to shovel from the apartment to the classroom. This is a long distance. Sunday there was enough snow that a number of things were cancelled, including church. We felt the pain of shovelling for two hours that day.
We have consistently maintained our daily devotions and prayer to keep us uplifted and faithful in our lives. Now we have also started a new study on the book called 'Seeking the Face of God' by Gary L. Thomas. This is a book that attempts to help us attain a more intimate relationship with God by using insights from Christian thinkers of the past. The book is starting off good and we are excited about continuing the study.
