Today is one of those days when I want to be Mary all day, sitting at the feet of Jesus listening; yet the stuff of earth pulls me to be Martha. School starts soon and I'm battling the lies of the enemy again. He tells me I can't do this. I can't possibly have the energy to teach Kindergarten....again. He is convincing and yet...my husband preached an amazing sermon Sunday reminding me again....the same power lives in me that raised Christ from the dead! Daily I will need that power that is made perfect in weakness. I ask for that all-sufficient grace, again, to help me teach 2 beautiful girls, not only academics, but life-skills, worship lessons and who God is. I pray "God, I need you." and He is there. I pray "Give me the energy." and He does. I asked for creativity...and He gave me Pinterest. Ha!
So I'm off to lesson plan the first week of school for 7th grade and Kindergarten, while praying for the teachers that will have my son this year for 10th grade and listening for that still small voice that keeps me in His peaceful presence. Blessings and prayers, my blog friends!
