Oh hey, remember me?

So, yes, it has been a really long time. Like over a month. So weird.

Anyway, the irony in the matter is that I am facing at this very moment the exact same thing I was dealing with when I wrote my last post. I don't know if I want to teach anymore.

I spent too much time today playing the what if game and staying inside my head, when in reality, this whole thing here ... yeah, not about me. It's about the kids I teach on a daily basis, the impact of me in the classroom has on their lives. It doesn't matter if I like it or want to do it forever or not, they deserve my very best.

I was reminded tonight that I don't have to figure out a year from now, heck, I don't even have to figure out a few weeks from now. All I have to do is take one day at a time. God promises to see me through. I know he hears me, I know he listens and he's there working in my life, guiding me through every moment. That's all that's important. The book of Matthew says something important. He quotes Jesus as saying "Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will take care of itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." This is the verse I keep reminding myself of today. Don't worry about tomorrow; it will work out. Just focus on today and get through it. God will take care of the rest!
