2 days down, how many to go!
Hey everyone!
What a busy week! Only two days into my first year teaching and Im already totally shattered!! Think Im gonna need July and August just to sleep!! Maybe I could hibernate!! Just need a carboard box filled with paper shreddings as shown on Blue Peter!!!
Anyway, just want to say thanks to all you bloggers! Its so encouraging to read about what God is doing in all your lives!! Its amazing! So keep up the blogging! You never know who might be reading and how much God might use what you type to speak to someone else!
Started reading the cross and the switchblade by David Wilkerson again this morning! Amazing book - I recommend it as a must read! Basically David Wilkerson is a country preacher who feels challenged to sell his TV and instead spend the time in prayer to God! Through these times spent in prayer God directs him into the streets of New York to tell the street gangs how God loves them!
I love Gods love!!! Im not gona try and explain it better than Max Lucado so heres how he explains it!!...
'We want to know how long Gods love will endure...Not just on Easter Sunday when our shoes are shined and our hair is fixed...Not when Im peppy and positive and ready to tackle world hunger. Not then. I know how he feels about me then. Even I like me then. I want to know how he feels about me when I snap at anything that moves, when my thoughts are gutter level, when my tongue is sharp enough to slice a rock. How does he feels about me then?...
God answered our question before we asked it. So we'd see his answer, he lit the sky with a star. So wed hear it he filled the night with a choir; and so wed believe it he did what no man had ever dreamed. He became flesh and dwelt among us. He placed his hand on the shoulder of humanity and said "Youre something special"
Romans 8 v 39 Nothing...in the whole world will ever be able to separate us from the love of God.
Amazing!! Remember that its Satan who tries to condemn us at times and make us think that God must be disappointed with us!! In fact God has loved us from the moment we were born!! Our God is the Father who is cheering us on from the sidelines!! So keep it going!!
Loads of love in Christ!

I'm gonna have to make a point of reading The Cross and The Switchblade, you've talked on it a few times and it sounds like an awesome story. Really encouraged by your post, Gods love is amazing, the more you consider it the more it blows you away. Anyway better go, hope and pray this week goes well for you and you get enough sleep along the way.
God bless

Enjoy this year, and be prepared for a few lessons and joys that God will bring too.
