For years I have longed to learn to read the Bible in the original languages. So when I heard we were moving to Colorado Springs I searched online and found a seminary in town that offers Greek classes, emailed and asked if they’d be willing to work with me to accommodate my hearing loss. They said “Yes!”
Turns out there are only three people in the class (including me!) and the instructor sits right in front of me, teaching from his desk – barely three feet from me. It is the perfect set up for me with my hearing loss!
I especially appreciated this after attending a women’s Bible study at a nearby church. There were 15 women and the desks were arranged in a square and for two hours I sat there barely able to understand a word!
What a gift from God this class is!!!
Not only because of the physical arrangements making it possible for me to “hear” but also as it’s really hard! Each week I am crying out to the Lord to help me learn what I need to – and He has! From creative raps to help me memorize, to guiding me to resources that help me retain it all, to the strength to persevere ~ He is making my dream possible!!!
Once again I am experiencing the Lord being so faithful to do 2 Corinthians 9:8 “And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so in all things, at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work!”
I am soooo thankful!
