where do we go from here?

It's July and 6 months of the years have passed in a twinkling of an eye. As a friend said, "where did the year go to all of a sudden?"

For me, it's been work, church, rest... work, church, rest... Even more so this year where we have a lot of new students. Currently now I handle 26 students and most of them are boys (I think its 19 boys versus 7 girls in my class).

In the midst of being busy something always manages to pull me one step away from the hustle and bustle, the stress and the speed of things..

It's You, Jesus =)

When I am tired, You've been there to restrengthen me
The days when I loath going to tuition, when inside I'm dying to take a nap.
The days when I wish I didn't need to walk over to someone's table because the flag is up.
The days when a fight breaks out in school and I wish someone else would handle it.

When I am discouraged, You've lifted me up
The days when I'm lonely, and needed a kind word from people I didn't expect
The days when I was just strumming the guitar and singing to You
The days when my advice, nagging and respect get treated like dirt

When I fail, You said, "It's okay, try again. I am with you always."
The days when I realised I could have been less angry with people
The days when a child wasn't given enough love
The days when I realised I don't love You as much as I know I should

When I cry, You wipe my tears away
The days when nothing seems to work and it falls apart
The days when I search my heart and see a place that hurts You, not me
The days when I desperately wished that I could do more than what I can do now

these are the times that You have been with me - fatigue, discouragement, failure and sorrow.
these are the times when You seem closest to me.
these are the times that I know I need to fall into Your arms and rest.

its been such a rough 6 months God... I know You're grace is sufficient for me. Though I am weak, You are so much strong!

i will stop trying to work hard on Your behalf and leave it to Your awesome hands to work wonders in my life.

God, I want the next 6 months that in December i won't recount the four pains in my life - I want STRENGTH, HOPE, SUCCESS AND HAPPINESS !!! amen!!!!
