Today we had the graduation and celebration ceremony for the end of this training course. These people are so open hearted that they applaud for each other for long periods of time (back home in Australia we seem to fatigue in our ability to keep encouraging each other)...
They also think to say thank you in substantial ways to all those who have helped in any way at all. The cheer that the cook received was long, loud and incredibly appropriate :)
And more than all of this, they express joy, gratitude and hope in our Lord through music and words in ways that stir the heart. For me, the time here has enriched me in more ways than I can currently put into words.
When I get home I will look again at Grace - because here in Nepal God has used the time of fellowship to remind us of His throne of mercy and grace (you can read about it at the end of Hebrews chapter 4).
God is good...
