New Challenges

Sometimes God changes our plans. That happened to me last week. One of the teacher's at the school didn't return after Christmas so the school asked me to stay for the afternoons too. Formerly, I was only there half-day. While I liked having other ministries and things in the afternoon, what else could I say but yes? Then I learned that I would be teaching four new classes starting Monday: seventh and eighth grade grammar and literature. Middle school is a little out of my element, but I have to trust that God is putting me right where He wants me to serve, even if that was not my idea of what the rest of the school year would be. It's going to take a lot of patience and trust. But after the initial shock of so many unexpected changes wore off, I found myself excited for these new challenges and opportunities. I have no idea what I am getting myself into. I know I need God's help. But this should be good.
