Teaching Bible School This Week

There is so much I have

to share.

So much to blog from the past 2 weeks.

I am teaching Vacation Bible School this week

to ages 11 and up.

It requires more than I am.

I end each day falling asleep on the couch.

5 days to share.

My heart swells with all that I want

to say, to share, to teach . . .

stories of what God has done for me

how I want them to guard their hearts . . .

to protect the sacred place that is within them

and not let others

trample, trash, and move in to their hearts . . .

the importance of the Sword of the Spirit

~the Word of God~

that it is more than words on a page

but the very offensive weapon they have to fight

an enemy that wants to steal, kill and destroy

the core of who they were made to be . . .

that finding God

in the little things amidst daily life

that is not always how

we

want

it

to be

can make you realize how blessed

and

rich

your life is right here, right now . . .

that hearing the Lord speak to your heart

can counsel

you

better than any other

and that

it

is

possible

. . . .

so

much to share

 . . .

so little time.

I feel like this bird.

Here one moment

gone the next

kind of like

these kids

{including my son}

that used to be in the

5-6 year old class

now getting ready to become

teens . . . journeying to adulthood.

Praying that the Lord

shines into their hearts

this week

what they need personally

and that

they are

open

and sensitive

to listen

for him.
