mixed

I have mixed feelings today with it being teachers last day of school. I go back to the emotions I had when my students would leave me for the year. It was so sad to say good bye to some of them and yet so exciting to begin my time off for the summer. Now that I am not teaching, I think about what it was like at the end of may, the end of the school year....and to be honest...I really do miss teaching. I know people say I can always go back and do it again, but to work with the same staff and parents I had will never be! I miss and I enjoyed that season in my life.

I know I posted this song several months back....but once again it's on my mind.

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it is painful
But patiently, I will wait

I will move ahead, bold and confident
Takeing every step in obedience
While I'm waiting
I will serve You
While I'm waiting
I will worship
While I'm waiting
I will not faint
I'll be running the race
Even while I wait

I'm waiting
I'm waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful
I'm waiting on You, Lord
Though it's not easy
But faithfully, I will wait
Yes, I will wait
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve You while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting
I will serve you while I'm waiting
I will worship while I'm waiting on You, Lord

I've learned

I have always thought contentment was in regards to being content with what you have: the house you live in, the car you drive, the clothes you wear, exc.

Recently, I think God is teaching me to be content on where he has me and situations that are happening in my life that are beyond my control.

Stink!

Life is a bit disappointing right now in several areas.

Wondering

Wondering what it means for my family to "sacrifically" give?
