Ternopol Ukraine....final stop in Urkaine
Ternopol was a blessed time; i was there for 7 nights at the Youth With A Mission (YWAM) base. Got to visit orphanages on three occasions to brings juice boxes and snacks, games, etc., served with the worship team (via music), went to an english club, spent time with pastor george, studied Ukrainian a bit, prepared for the next kids camp that i'll be teaching english and the bible at, and got to share about the love of Jesus with African students- as there is a hefty African population in Ternopol.
I often found myself explaining the importance of how a good country needs legitimate justice and judgment toward violators of the law (this is not a stretch for Africans/Ukrainians)... and how God also must execute justice/judgment in order to truly be good (similar to how an earthly judge could be in contempt of court if he allowed the guilty off)... i then explained how God took upon Himself our judgment at the cross, so that he could be both just and merciful.
