I find myself in a classroom again and I am not sure why exactly I am here. I feel frustrated because I don’t find meaning in what I am supposed to learn. When I look around me, I see a bunch of people, about 75 and the majority is probably going to hell, maybe everyone. What are they doing here? They are learning about various methods to teach a second language. (…) I don’t know, but to me, it does not make sense, at all. These people are all going to hell maybe tomorrow, maybe in 30 years and what they are doing to learning about language teaching. Shouldn’t they be gathered together to learn about Jesus, that there is a Savior for them? No there are learning on something that will give them a bachelors degree of some sort, that they will use later on in life. In life. I am frustrated a bit, feeling that this situation makes no sense to me, but I know that for them it’s the way life is. I have felt this strong feeling of meaninglessness as strong as right now. What am I supposed to do? I thought of walking down the auditorium and proclaiming the good news of Jesus, but I know I can’t just interupt the teacher like that, can I? But these people are all sleeping and they don’t even know it, they’re dreaming, who’s going to pinch them? There is a time for everything under the sun and I guess right now the time is for one-on-one relationships, speaking of Jesus to individuals I rub shoulders with. I don’t like the idea of a slow process, I want everybody to wake all at the same time and realize their need for Jesus.
I know this is a mood of mine and it’ll go away. Is that mood good? I think it is and I hope it remains with me so I am always seeking to speak about Jesus with actions and words, words, words.
I am going to … Saskatchewan for a week and won’t be bak until October 27. So this page shall remain has it is right now for a little while. Have a good week y’all.

What you are going through reminds me exactly of what Jesus felt like when he was looking at Jerusalem (Mat. 23:37. He also wished that they would come to him as their Messiah - but they didn’t! So what did he do? He continued life doing what the Father had planned for him and left the rest in his Fathers hands. We all have to do the same… leave-it in the Fathers hands - Ray
By the way, the next time we see each other (maybe for your birthday) I will give money for missionnary winter clothing - Ray
