Tonight a realization hit me.
The girls of the school wanted to pray for me in our nightly closing prayer.
We were in a circle and just by chance.. The two Latin girls were on my right, and two Americans on my left. They began to pray, all at the same time just in general. And I'm sitting listening to their prayers when all of the sudden.. I realize.. I'm listening to Spanish in one ear and Elnglish in the other! They're both praying for me... My brain is hearing two languages at the EXACT SAME time...
And it understands!
It wasn't just a shock of realizing you understand a whole second language... Cause those moments happen to me all the time. (ok. sounds haughty much? noooot my intention) But I think it was one of the first times I've just sat listening to both at the exact time... it was amazing to sit there and listen to these girls prayers for me and see the beauty of the body of Christ. Where each girl who comes from different couties and different languages, and even though not everyone could understand the other...
Prayer united us as a family is Christ.
