he is still the one that stirs my heart

sorry about the lack of update. things were busy with the move and all. i am finally where God wants me to be. i have only been here for 2 weeks and it feels like years. i have been blessed with a wonderful job, place to live, and new relationships. the only thing i truly miss is my church. i have been to a couple here but they don't compare. i guess i also miss having a target a mile away. :P

i have 12 days before school starts. i am both nervous and excited. i doubt myself a lot, but i know that if this is what God called me to do (and i feel that it is) then he will do it through me. well all i can say is, He better! ;) i got to meet some of my students and their parents at an ice cream social. i think it is going to be great year. i came across an interesting quote in a teaching book i read "inexperienced teachers ask, 'how am i doing?' and experienced teachers ask, 'how are my students doing?' even though i am technically inexperienced, i am praying that my students will learn a lot from me. i know i will learn a lot from them.

the other night when i got home, i stood for a moment outside looking up at the stars. without the city lights, you can see so many stars- it's absolutely breathtaking. as is the love of God. after all that i've been though, He is still the one that stirs my heart. i pray that nothing will make that feeling go away. ~
