"It's all a gift undeserved that I shouldn't have known. Every moment I covet-I'm just earning Your judgement. So in times that are good--in times that are bad. For any time that I've had, I will be glad. I will boast in the cross, I'll boast in my pain. I'll boast in the sunshine, boast in this rain.What's my life if I'm not praising You? Another dollar in my bank account of vain pursuit. I do not count my life as any value or precious at all-let me finish my race. Let me answer my call. Tomorrow's never promised-but it is we swear. Think we're holding our own? Just a fist full of air. God has never been obligated to give us life...Patiently You turn my heart away from selfishness. I live to show Your glory. I'm dyin to tell Your story."-Lecrae. I can't tell you how many times I listened to this song in the car today. Seems to fit all too well!
*We got some bad news in my family this week, so I put my work on hold and went home for the weekend. It's hard to see someone you love suffer. I feel like we have rewound 10 years. It was so refreshing to be around family and some close friends.
*My mom helped me find a bunch of crock-pot meals. Hopefully we can move away from cereal and salad this week. :)
*We had apple week at school on Friday. We made Applesauce together, I made apple muffins, apple juice, apple chips and apples. We graphed which one was our favorite. "Ms....I wish my mom could cook like this!!!"
*Is it weird that I'm excited for school tomorrow to see my students?
:)
I am sorry about Angela's news. Your strong family and faith will get her through. It's done wonders for Megan.
ReplyDeleteApple week. I am jealous! Remember to tell them that each one is the "apple of your eye."
It's not a bit weird that you are excited for school tomorrow. I can remember times when I felt "I can't believe they're paying me for doing this."
