Transition after Transition

Time has gone by. I have been wrestling with God and my own heart. And now I am at a reprieve. I sit here sweating, heaving, and panting next to God (who isn't out of breathe at all). I try an underhanded jab when he isn't looking. He laughs. Sigh. Maybe I am learning. Maybe not.

Let's blog, shall we?

How to Pray for Me

I woke up at 5am on the day that I get to sleep into 7am.

School starts oh so soon. I am nervous. I am taxing my poor little brain. I am excited. I have a new headmaster, a new teaching philosophy, and new ideas. It is exciting.

Pray for me. Pray that I don't run myself into the ground as I am wont to do. Pray that I work hard and rest well. Pray for my fellow teachers to also rest and prep well. Pray for the administration of my school that they will lead well and facilitate smoothly. Pray for my students that they may grow in education and Christ regardless of my teaching ineptitude or awesomeness. Pray that God directs me as I move to OKC where to live and somehow does my packing for me. I hate packing. Pray for my relationships that they are strengthened in Christ. Pray that every day I lean less on my own understanding because I am overzealous to take God's job away from him. Pray that I place my insecurities and fears with him and that he would hammer my identity as his into my heart.

Just pray for me and my school, people!

I need it.

Badly.
