Coming back to work after the Easter school holidays was not easy. On day two I can honestly say I had tears in my eyes because I just didn't want to face the day. As I was driving to work that day (Wednesday) I was paying/talking to my Father in Heaven telling Him that I didn't think I'd be able to find the strength to handle my classes. I pleaded with Him to help me and strengthen me.
Before I had even arrived at work I had calmed down, tears gone and a feeling of peace had come over me. At lunch I was talking to one of my colleagues and told her about shedding a couple of tears before work. She suggested I pray and it felt so wonderful to be able to tell her that I did, and even more exciting to witness to her that it worked! :-)
I recognised the Lord's hand in everything that happened that day. I had such a warm welcome as I walked into school from students and teachers alike. This was such a blessing because that morning (along with the tears) I told Nic that I don't know how long I could do this job for and that I don't think I enjoy it. I actually do enjoy my job. It has more hard days than easy ones but I live for the moments when I see my students enjoy my lessons or get excited about learning something new. I hope I can continue to recognise the Lord's hand in every aspect of my life and thank Him every single day for the things He does for me!
