It's been a while since I wrote an update. For that I'm sorry.
To write an update It feels like there needs to be something big to write about. Some revelation or miracle. Nothing like that.
So I'm in my 7th month here. Korean study is going well and I'm learning fast and Loving using this language. When I speak I feel Joy. Which is an amazing thing.
I recently went back to England for a week to see old friends and family and also to kind of wrap things up in my heart towards a few different issues and to be honest...to say goodbye. I feel at home in Asia, and right now It seems Its where Ill stay. I spent the week with Jake and Beth Gillespie and worked with Jake during the week. It was so good to do something physical again. I've just been sat at desks for the last 6 months so It was good to hold paintbrushes and hammers!!
God is still overwhelming with opportunity to share Him with people here. I don't believe it Glorifies God to say "I'm a sinner" but when We say "He is our Saviour". But after being in a situation where I have obviously been used to share His heart with a person, I cant help but think....wow, why would you use me!But I remember that God uses who he has to further his Kingdom. He has me, and I hope he has you too.
North K, China have both been on my heart and I am seeking for what is next. How to use the language. It looks like one of the above is my next destination. But we shall see. Things never work out the way you think.
Making great friends here still. I'm loving hearing the minds and hearts of other cultures that I have never met. My best friends these days are Indonesian and Russian. Such good hearts. I Love! ^^
Still doing work in an English Institute in Incheon, but should be finishing with the coming of the new semester. Its a long travel everytime and takes away time from study, which I desperately need with exams coming every month and a half.
Anyway, life is Study, Kimchi and God. The last months have been the struggle of my life, not going into detail. But trusting for my Savior as I seek refuge in Him.
May He be Glorified with this time here, through failure and triumph.
Amen

Danny, love reading these updates, alway wish we could be having these convo's face to face at least through skype, but I still love hearing about your life in Korea. So great to hear about your language learning, we are trying at Xhosa just now, am so looking forward to being able to speak it well! Sounds like God has been working a great refining in you, he is so worthy of that, and I can tell is shaping you so incredibly. muchos love from scotland.
Hey Danny,

You are a man of God. Don't forget it.
