Lesson learned

Ok, so God decided to show me just how wrong I could be. I was not finding Joy. Rather, let me say that I was taking my joy in what God could do, not what He is. To update my last post, I now have a job teaching at a school, my son had a daycare spot open up at that school, and God, one again is showing me that He really does take care of all my needs. I knew that. Thats what makes me feel bad, but in a good way.

You see, my pastor told me to preach to myself. All those lessons that I have taught my youth group, I needed to give to me. I did, and then God answered my prayers. How low am I to think that God would not take care of my family. In my prayer time I felt God telling me that its ok. God just does not give up on me. I am so thankful for that. I hope that I dont do this again.

My trip back to south florida was amazing. I took 3 of my new youth back with me so that they could say goodbye to their friends one last time before the school year starts. We had a blast, singing clasic rock songs, talking about favorite movies, songs, and even having them criticize me over my love of all things High School Musical. These kids have a passion for God and that inspires me. And they are great kids. I cant wait to continue watching them grow in faith.

I am enjoying my last few days in south fla with my best friend. We ate Publix Chicken, watched tv and just had fun. I have to clean my townhouse...i dont want to. I start work on Monday and that means my last days of summer will be spent cleaning.

So, as I go start my new life in Haines city, I am taking my new perspective on Joy with me. I will be counting it ALL joy...not just in what God can do, but Who GOD IS. Keep praying for us. thanks
