Well we're officially in our first full week of school. So far, it's been wonderful. I'm really enjoying my new schedule and my students. It seems different this year being a 4th year teacher, like I'm more prepared or something. I've already turned in my quarter plans... woah... that's crazy ahead. I'm sure that it will come to an end as soon as I start coaching full time, so for now I will enjoy it.
Thursday during our staff devotions, I'll be leading them. I'm a bit nervous. Last year at this time our speaker for spiritual emphasis week asked to do devotions during my slot... darn... lol... So, It's been almost two years since I've shared. I'm pretty certain of the message that God has laid on my heart, but that doesn't make me any less nervous.
The message that I feel like God is directing me to, is this: Focusing on eternally insignificant things rather than the eternally significant and then letting that incorrect focus leading me to having a complaining spirit.
One morning after I first got here, I woke up with those thoughts in my head (it was at 3am), I tried to go back to sleep, but it did no good, so finally about 2o minutes later, I got up and started search scripture for His word on this. It was a pretty amazing time. I found so many references that I want to use, but continue study showed me so many more that could be tied into my message. Hopefully all those jumbled thoughts will come together before Thursday morning. Here's hope.
