Scary Things to Brave

 It has been quite a week.  I went to a wake I was nervous about going to.  It was my boss.  Then today a new gyno.  Answers to my questions.  A possibility that I might be able to eventually enjoy sex.  A way I could avoid being in pain during an exam.  I am grateful.  I remember that if I was able to go through theses things I can do others.  Thanks Lord!

that explains a lot

Yesterday I  did lunch with Diane.  It is a blessing and I am glad I can do it.  Had a good walk today.  

Last week I was thinking about the certified meeting.  It was interesting because my co teacher came in all swearing and mad.  It explains why she does what she does. 

The war is over for a while, let them with stuff

 Mike and I had a nice anniversary dinner.  It was nice I enjoyed it and we had good conversation and food.  Yesterday the kids church was pretty good.  The kids enjoyed going in the inflatables.  The only frustration was that the pastor went over 45 minutes after he was supposed to stop.  It was hard watching the kids just sit there with their gifts.  And then putting on the inflatables again.  I cleaned mostly up and then left.  I was so angry.  We had so many kids and the pastor did not think of anything else except that he had a large crowd.  Of course it was large because the kids were getting free gifts.  And then we got stuck with the other church's traffic.  And the people in front were scared to go.  I was finally a bad Christian and honked.  I put up my hood so the person did not know who I was.  

I think back to the book Let them.  I let Adren preach too long.  I cannot control him but I can sure control that I am in kids church and not in the service.  Plus I know this is where I am supposed to be to minister to the future of the flock.  I can't change others but I can change myself. 

I can't change others with their behavior like at work but I can do things God's way  I choose to do that.

A Special Morning

 Today I got to spend most of the morning with one of rascals.  He worked hard for me and then we baked cookies.  He did so incredible.  Thank you Lord for giving me wisdom today.  I also got a letter about my fake religious statement.  What a time to send it right before break.  I have tried hard to not show my faith but it is pretty hard when God is shining in me.  

Every challenge is a growth opportunity

 Yesterday was quite the morning.  From not answering a parent's email, to meeting with my boss, to  a staff who smelled of weed it was quite the morning.  But it all worked out.  Thankful for that.  

Make a choice to enjoy your life

 

I really need wisdom.  I made a choice with my co-worker and the mom was pretty upset.  I don't want to upset the apple cart but there needs to be protection for all the other children with this situation.  In the midst of this I need to enjoy my life even though it is not fun at times.  Lord help me today as I deal with this parent and situation.

God's sense of humor

Today I got my car insurance taken care of.  I had to be a perk but it happened.  Today I gave my gifts.  Hardly acknowledged.  Complained about other stuff.  Glad I am not on the chopping g block today
