Sowing Seeds

So the receptionist at the school I work at speaks very little English, and I don't speak a lick of Korean yet somehow we get along wonderfully. We've had dinner together a few times now. She said (and this is through a translator mind you) that she was very shy to speak English around me but would like to be friends. Okay. That's pretty easy. And its pretty easy running into a couple of American girls at the market who decide I can spend the whole day with them to kill time. Awesome. Definitely a random and welcomed encounter. I started the day determined to see something and have a pleasant outing and the Lord certainly blessed my effort. There's an instant mutual bond between people when they run into each other in a foreign country. I had my first real Korean adventure which gave me a better outlook on things, as did being in good hands. I hope to have the confidence to pursue relationships and experiences. That's not something I have been very successful at in the past. God is pushing me, but not without some places safe to fall.
