A light in the darkness...

I missed Thank you Thursday.  Sorry about that.

It is Pentecost Sunday and our church service was a joyful and celebration of the birth of the church. 

A nice little story....

On Thursday morning, I was a bit stressed.  Most of this stress was self inflicted in anticipation of the huge day I had ahead of me.  It was supposed to be at school at 7:45am to get a head start on the day.  During the first lesson of the day I was to teach a year 8 class.  Period 2, I was observing a year 9 HPE class while they began working on their assessment task.  Period 3, I was observing a year 11 Vocational Maths class.  Fourth period I would hopefully have to myself to finish off some planning and hand in paperwork for the next day.  On Friday I took a day of Family Leave and needed to make sure that everything was in hand for my planned absence.  (This shaping up to be a long story) After school I was scheduled to attend a two hour professional development session about behaviour management (which is a story all of it's own).  So, when I walked into my office at 8:15am (yes, I was late) I was feeling more than a bit overwhelmed.  I looked sat in my chair and looked down at my desk to find...

Notes and treats from our school chaplain to the teachers.  So simple. So special. 

What a blessing!! On a day that I was sure was going to be 'difficult' a light was right there on my desk, waiting for me.  I had prayed that morning and asked that the Holy Spirit would carry me through the day.  The BFF was praying for me and (I hear today) the young adults life group was also praying for me. 

Thank you God for Answered Prayer and Chocolate Pudding
