June 23, 2009 12:50 pm

Just got done with my lunch and I have an hour until my next class. I just got done grading my 1st years quizzes and they weren't very pretty. I'm going to have to decide if it was too hard or they just didn't study. Two or three made 100% out of 19. I'll wait and see how my 2nd years do at 1:45.

JM, Ben Mark, Krista, Hailey, Lemwell, Olen, and I stayed up until 10:30 last night talking and singing. We went to the roof of the church (4 story building) where we could see the majority of San Pablo City.

Yesterday afternoon Jake was wearing a shirt 10 times his size that had stains and make-up all over it. The collar was stretched to his waist. I was told that he found it in the dumpster. I made him take it off and he wasn't very happy. he told me he wanted to keep it and wash it but I didn't let him. We went to the guys dorm to get him another shirt. ALL of his clothes consisted of 3 shirts, 2 pairs of shorts, and 1 pair of long pants. That explained why he always wears a white muscle t-shirt that is stained brown and hard from dried sweat. I don't know what to do. I could afford to buy Jake new clothes, but there are also 40 other orphans. Not all of them are as bad off as Jake, but they all have needs. I can't help them all.

Pray that God gives me wisdom and understanding. I also pray that He gives me peace. He is in control and He loves Jake, and every other orphan, more than I could ever imagine. Regardless of worldly circumstances, God is good.
