Home

I typed this yesterday morning, just forgot to post it...

I sit here this morning, watching a few of my children play together on their last day of spring break. It has been a long and rough week. Not because of my students. I have really enjoyed watching them interact and not have to do homework. For so many of them they have a really hard time with their school work. It means that most of the time they spend here is spent doing that work and not playing and learning about the God who loves them dearly.

Speaking of God...  what have I learned here? I have learned that I am far from perfect. Well duh, but I have been reminded of all the things I need to work on. I have seen that if I make time for God in the morning, it makes for a better day. He is far greater than I could ever fathom. I need Him in my life. I have never really been one to long for the day when I will be with Him but I find myself in that place now. As much as I enjoy life, I find myself coming to understand the fact that this is not my home. I look forward to the day when I will stand with my Lord, free of the junk of this world, finally at home.
