ONE week in! :p

I REALLY CAN'T believe my first week is OVER!!! I have learned SO much from just this first week.
1. You can't always go by your lesson plan
2. You need to be creative and learn to deal with ALL sorts of children
3. Spanish class from High School (and 2 semester of college) really DOES pay off! Hahahaha...
4.  You need God to be present with you in everything you do! (Probably the MOST important one!)

So in the midst of my first week I think I already have begun this everyday motion. I gather my kids, start journaling, writing, snack, math etc... but then I forget to pray with my kids or go over the weekly verse. This first week was a real reminder from God to me that I must not get lost into the motion of life, even when the very reason of being here is because of the Lord. Life can sure get you caught up, but we must not forget the Lord.
I think this weekend will be a weekend of finding rest with the Lord. I don't wanna go back to home with this wonderful experience and get caught up with motions of life. I need to remember the Lord and make sure that I am continually in sync with Him. Please continue to pray for me, my co-workers, and BCM/East Palo Alto.
