Hey dad,
We have 3 more days for this first camp before we move on to Suzhou for our next camp. I've only been teaching for 7 days so far, but I am so tired and so worn out. I'm running out of patience and grace to show to the kids in my class. If I haven't already told you, I have pretty much 20 of the rowdiest boys in the whole camp (which is why I only have 20 kids while everyone else has 26-32 kids). I've been trying really really hard to not be the typical super strict teacher that they have in china and do everything through love and grace, because even though it takes longer for the students to respond, it has a lasting effect on them. However, with only 3 days left, I feel like its just too much. Its super discouraging to see that its the 7th day and the kids haven't really responded in the way that I would have liked them to or anything. ajsd;klfjkl.
bleh. Please pr-y for strength and patience and for me to experience more of G-d's grace so that as he fills me up, I will be able to pour out more.
Love,
Heemin
