Me and my prayer partner
Me and my Prayer partner have decided to do I fear factor getting ready for Cameroon and kind of prepare are selves before they do with foods that we will be eating. In are first we are two challenges where to eat salmon and shrimp. That week we were able to get everything down on how much we ate and it went really well. Then week 2 we decided we needed something a little more challenging so we need to eat sardines now I don’t no why we choose this just let me tell you that we both were not looking forward to it. It was the first challenge I could not really get down yet keep down. For you anyone who would like to see us doing are fear factor challenge there will be videos coming were you can join us in the action.
Worried
Matthew 6: 25:33-34
Matthew 6:25 talks about being worried about many things on your image more but When I look at these verses I think about all the worries I have about going away to Cameroon and my worries are more things I am afraid of happening which bring worry into my life. Thing I get really worked but is my dad and his health condition I always just feel like one day I will get a phone call saying that my dad dyed. Going to Cameroon I worry about if anything thing where to happen I might be able to be able to get a hold of or I would not be able to get back there because I am a cross seas. I have all these worries building up and it can be a lot of stress on you as well and on top of that you have worries on things that could just go wrong and you can’t do anything about it. In Matthew 33-34 its talks about not to worry and just keep reaching out to God and seeking him you are under his care and he looks out for you. It’s says we are not to worry about tomorrow we are to take it day by day in those days we are to trust God that he will take care of everything in his will. The verses 33-34 are verses that have a huge deal to do with me right now for I have many things that I am getting worked up over and not really trusting God with, with my hole heart . These verses are ongoing reminders that I need not to worry for God knows what’s on my heart. As long as I trust in him and not worry for what’s ahead and take it day by day then I will come a lot more trusting on God and be less worried and stressed.

Patience
Lately having patience is something I have been hearing a lot everywhere I go and just people alone saying to me a lot. What is really being patience mean like does it mean that is just something that we all might need to look into because I believe it more than being able to wait a good amount of time it also something you have to work out with others for others also need to understand and wait with you for an example In Matthew 18:29 it says "His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, 'Be patient with me, and I will pay you back.' It was not that the servant didn’t have patients it’s that he need other people to look at him and understand where he was coming from and have trust in him rather than patient for he said he would deliver. I don’t know I could be taken this out of context but it’s just the way I have been looking at it from this point. I mean the definition of patience to be able to wait without being easy angered or pushy. Patience is a fruit of the spirit it also is in the Holy Spirit meaning that it something that needs to live instead of a Christian. For its an action that’s shows and reflects who God is, patience is not something that is just in you and something you work on but something you can see in other people and thier attitude. This is such something i was thinking and looking at.

Devotional discipline
Having devotional discipline is where I always see myself struggling on doing I always think and know I should be doing my time with God and praising him and talking to him about my life but its like I always push my time with him away. It is because all I do is here about God every day? Is it because I allowed my Bible to become my textbook? If it is those reason’s are still not an excuse at all, because you can never have enough time with God you can never be done knowing about him. Therefore you should keep pressing into him and getting to know him and grow your relationship with him. How are we do grow are relationship with God when we can’t even dig into his word because we said we get enough of him in a week. The thing is there is no excuse at all for any of this it comes down to how disciplined you are and how willing you are to push yourself to know God. It really should not be that hard to pick up your Bible and read a few verses and then reflect on them it does not sound that hard, but yet when we think about doing we don’t because there are other things we could be doing like Facebook or napping. It’s kind of sad to see how many things that have been brought up in the world to distract us from what should matter to us the most. When I have decided to do was for LENT I am giving up my afternoon naps in that time that I take for myself I am going to go to the Lord and spend time with him read up on his word and finally my a oath to discipline myself worship the Lord as much as a can in my life. Even when I am thinking I am so tired and can go without my I go to God and ask for my strength and to keep me going. I would say that this is something that has been hitting me really hard and something I believe I really can do it I stay determined and disciplined.
Cameroon education
In Cameroon there was no goverment policy put into Cameroons education programs and teaching. Goverment had every very little part in any of the educational process and they had tryed to but a policy in place but was unable to do so. Cameroon has I believe 3 differnt Ministrys of education which are, the Ministry of National Education, The Ministry to Technical Education and vocational training, and The Ministry of Higher education. All those are a different levels and ways of education. In Cameroon the levels of ages of kids you go into school are ages 6-12 and that was in the year 2001,but knowing that there are still many children out there with no education and with some edcuation and unable to continue for simple reasons that they just cant afford it. They are unable to leave there families life style and are pushed to continue to work and make money for the family thats all they really can do. Saying that there have been differnt ministry teams that have came in and have build schools and been helping giving free schooling to help kids go and make a giving. Thier for they can even move on to college and be able to move where they need to move on to or even just being able to start something around there area. Another really interusting fact is that men are the one who are getting more of the education for the women are the ones looking after the family making the food taking care of the life at home. Women need the education for simple reasons learn the right ways to bring up thier children and what to do when they are sick are what to do when they are pregant with a child. All this is evolved around education and with out their education they struggle to get anywhere.
