It has been a really busy week for me, from accreditation meetings to preparing for our "Parent-Share" Presentation during our Parent Teacher Conference, to scheduling to meet the WASC team as a grade level chair. I kept thinking I would still have time to further discuss the lesson plans with my paraprofessional then she goes on leave! Although she has returned, I'm sure she is not emotionally ready, luckily I have my ESL aide (soon to be teacher) to tap on. I know he will do a great job, because he has worked with my students for 3 months now. I realize there are aspects in our lives we can not control and thinking about it only stresses you out! So instead of trying to take control of things in your life and worry about it, just give it to God because He is in control. We really need to quit worrying and concentrate in doing what we do best; teaching. Have a great weekend team MAGEC!!
Amen, Mar! I think we all need this reminder from time to time. There's only so much we can do, and nothing is impossible for the Lord. He's there for us to lean on. He'll give us the strength and guidance we need.
ReplyDeleteI second the Amen! With determination, patience and a whole lot of hard work, what we've accomplished with our students has and will show up in varying degrees of success among our students. That's a lot to be thankful for...thank the Lord!
ReplyDeletePraise the Lord. Here's a quote I came across...

Enjoy your weekend Mar, you deserve it!
Amen Sister! Focus on what you do, and God will do the rest. He did so with your student, and he will continue to do so. We may want our timing for things, but God's timing, though often confusing to us, is always perfect.
