The amount of different cultures, languages, and foods here is insane.. And I'm only in one part of Germany and I've only been here for 9 days.. I'm loving this.
The German is coming along pretty nicely actually. I can speak more and use proper grammer much better now. I'm really hoping to have a good chunk of it down by the end of my training.
So this week, was a pretty interesting one. To start it off, I was chilling on the Bahn, talking to this old lady, practicing my German, and an older man dressed in women's clothing (a cross dresser) came over to me and started hitting on me. I guess I forgot to mention that Köln is known for that, but it was definitely a different experience.. That was a pretty weird way to start of the week, but as the week went on it got so much better.
We found to potential investigators yesterday as we were finding, and they seemed pretty interested. The other day ago, me and my companion went to the hospital and gave one of the sisters investigators a blessing, he had broken his femur(if not that, it was something to do with his leg) . He was super excited about it, and we talked a lot afterwards, and he wants to teach me how to speak/read Persian. That would be super cool, but I think for now I should stick to German! Haha!
So along with that story, something really cool happened. We left the hospital and went about doing our business, and the next day, we got a text from the sisters, saying that he legit just up and walked the next morning. I can attest that that was a miracle from God, and an answer to a prayer. I woke up that morning and I immediately started thinking that something exciting was going to happen today. I prayed that I would see a miracle, and not an hour went by before we got that text.
The Lord does answer our prayers, and miracles do still happen today. I know that to be true, and all we have to do to see those miracles in our lives is believe on them, ask God with sincerity, and do our part.
Ich habe Leibe für euch!
