Obedience

Week 3 of the school year is underway and I'm loving it! My students are being super engaged and seem to be grasping concepts well. I've been able to slow down and explain much better than I did last year. We have our first real round of tests on Wednesday so we'll see how it goes. 

On top of teaching I've been trying to learn a lot myself. As badly as I want to begin the next chapter of my life, I still have some growing to do in this phase. Physically I'm doing well. I've been training for a half marathon that's about 6 weeks away. Emotional training is a different story. 

I want to just jump all in but I'm being held on the cusp on where that is. So, in the mean time, I've been feeling challenged to focus on what is right in front of me: my students. I want to start sitting down with them one by one and listening to their spiritual journey. Hopefully start one with them if it hasn't begun yet. I'm not sure how I will disciple and mentor 46 kids but God will provide. 

As for my dating life, well me sorting that out failed so I'm back to trusting God. Crazy how hard it is to slow down and trust Him. Why can I trust him with my eternity but not my marriage. Whew that's truly something I need to pray for discernment on.
