Heavenly Father
Today is Father's day and also a day in which one young lady has become God's daughter. She now knows her Heavenly Father. A group of ladies met today to study the Bible and English. Today there were 5 ladies in attendance where we shared the gospel message. We talked about creation-the fall-sin-our need-salvation. One of my friends was able to have a deeper conversation about the lesson with this young lady. Following she decided that she wanted to accepted Jesus as her Savior and to become a child of God. She was led in prayer and then I had the opportunity to pray for her after she recieved Christ. Pray for V and her new life in Christ.

Relating Scripture to Life
Today I met with a Khmer leader at the dorm. The leaders are only a little older than the students but are responsible for them-making sure that the rules are obeyed, the house is kept clean, the students go to school...It is difficult since everyone are adults. This leader has had some trouble with confronting the students, sometimes they do what they are supposed to one time but then fall back. Some students think that since they are adults they can chose for themselves. I encouraged this leader to use scripture how God sets guidelines for us and we chose to obey them because we are His children-we know that God has our best in mind and that if we choose to disobey there are consequences and life has more problems. The same is with living at the dorm there are guidlines, rules and when we decide to live there we are saying we will obey these. There are rules because the leaders have the students best interest in mind, but if they chose to disobey there will be more problems. There we other things I shared from Scripture and this leader went away encouraged and feeling supported in a new way.
