Three for Three

So, let's just make it three for three. However, since school starts tomorrow I imagine that the frequency of my posts will be much less. I have enjoyed being on vacation. It is so nice to have some time away from my students and to just get to sleep in as much as I want. Earlier today I was not excited about going back to school tomorrow because it meant the end of my vacation and my free time. Well, I went to church tonight a little tired and not looking forward to being back at work tomorrow. After an amazing service I realized that my job is my ministry. It is where God has placed me to minister to my students and be an encouragement to them. When I view my job from that perspective the reward is so much greater. My desire is to go back to school tomorrow and really invest in my 5 students. I want to love them as God would want me to love them and I want to invest in them they way they deserve. So tonight I will enjoy my last night of vacation with my husband and go to bed excited to see what they second half of my year holds with these students.
