Joyce and I led the Spiritual Life Week at Morrison Academy in Taiwan. Here are a few samples of notes the seventh graders gave us:
"Dear Mr. and Mrs. Swingle...it's hard to believe how you can sacrifice everything for God. :) I hope that I'll be able to do that when I grow up."
"Thank you for coming all the way to Taiwan to teach us."
"I...am very grateful that you would come to our school to talk to us."
"I enjoyed this week's talks."
"Thank you for bringing me closer to God."
"I think the acting helps lead people closer to God."
"We really learned a lot this week."
"I learned many new things I never knew."
"Now I am comforted to know that God will never leave me because of what Jesus did."
"I learned a lot about trust. I will always remember it."
"I learned to trust God even when it seems impossible."
"I learned that...we should always give thanks to God."
"I learned that God will make scary things exciting."
"I...learned that serving God can be fun and done in many ways."
"Thank you for teaching us about wisdom...and telling us that it is wonderful to trust and obey God."
"Combining acting and an interesting perspective on the Bible made this Spiritual Life Week a memorable one."
"Before you came, I didn't realize how important trust was... There (were) a lot of times that I was lost. Now I know that when we trust God He guides us through the valley of the shadow of death."
"I learned... that knowing God is the best thing you can ever have! It guides you through darkness and comforts you when you're heartbroken. I know that sometimes I may feel forsaken by God, but He's always with us."
"I have learned that nothing can really make you happy except for Jesus' love. I have my entire life to learn and serve Jesus."
"One thing I learned was that you can always trust the Lord."
"Two things I've learned: Trust in the Lord through darkness and rough times. Always believe that God will be there for you even if you don't see Him."
"It really made me think about my life and how I can change it to make it better."
"I learned that trusting God really can make a difference, and I shouldn't be afraid when God asks me to do something; just do it, and great things will happen!"
"Thank you for changing my life."
"It has been an awesome week. Thanks!"
"Our school feels encouraged!"
"We will miss you!"
"Please visit us again sometime."
Joyce and I had so much fun working together we'd love to do Spiritual Life Weeks all the time. If you know of a school that has a Spiritual Life Week, please send them to http://RichDrama.com.
