So as I have mentioned in my last blog, my math class has been a huge challenge for me. I guess my students are physically not that bad, they just love to complain, get out of their seats, and try to not do their homework (ok so maybe they are really bad hahaha). Monday was probably one of the worst days since I had to send one of my students out, BUT today was a great day! First of all I was given help in creating a class goal (pizza party or whatever they want) if they are behaving well and finishing their homework. Giving my kids a goal definitely helped and having the presence of my boss was a bonus! :)
I think the Lord has been helping me realize how important it is to work on myself first before I really try to work into the lives of these children. I am probably like these children when it comes to my relationship with the Lord. I definitely have my up and down days. There are times when I am listening to the Lord and then there are days where Gods words go in and out my ear. I can be so foolish, but I thank God for His love, mercy, and grace. He is always forgiving and listening to my complaints and praises.
I thought my kids were a work in progress (and no doubt they are :p), but SURELY I AM a work in progress with the Lord. The trials in my life are shaping me into who He has called me to be. I know that I need to embrace my weaknesses and trials more often and give God praise because they are only there to better me. Praise God for the trials in my life. Praise Him because He promises to never give me something I cannot handle. AND Praise Him because through Christ ALL things are possible! :D
