In a Rush

Yes, I am sitting here in Books-A-Million. And Yes, I am suppose to be doing my homework, which I am so far behind on doing. But I miss writing on here and haven't in forever, so here it goes.

I'm back (duh!) from Washington D.C. I have never been so glad to be back home. The students I had on my group, well most of them, were not very respectful and did not want to listen to me. WHich was bad, because I was basically their mama for a week in a strange city. Now, if I was 10, I would have listened carefully to the adult, because I would have bee nworried I would have gotten lost. Not these kids. *sigh* I love my home. I am NOT a city girl. Gotta have my cow pastures and rivers.

One thing I desperately missed suring this week was having my alone time with Him. I mean, I did each day, but not as long or a personal as I am used to. This trip was exausting, both mentally and physically. By the time it was time for me to go to bed, I had absolutely no energy. And I am not in the best mood when I get up at 4:30 in the morning. Just...no. So I definintely missed that.

I hve made up for it by listening to some sermons on the radio. I listened to one yesterday that blew my mind. The pastor was talking about things that scientists have just not discovered that are supported in scripture. For example, that the earth is round, or the events of the water cycle, or that the planets revolve around the sun and the sun is not stationary. It is moving, slowly, but moving. Now, how cool is that?! This is something thatI definintely want to research more.

Time to study. Talk to y'all soon!

Love in Him,

Sarah

Wow... That trip sounds rough. Most of those feelings echo my own about teaching in general - about feeling too tired and busy and longing for more time to focus on the Word. But I'm sorry the kids were disrespectful. The sad part is, the kids recommended for those trips are supposed to be the BEST...
Glad you're back!
