Right now I'm supposed to be working on a "Case Study" for my Reading Diagnostics class...In a nut shell, I gave this a kid a reading test, and now I'm supposed to analyze all this data and figure out what his reading levels are, along with some ways to help him move up a level or two so that he may become a stronger reader.
It all sounds fine and dandy but all this clinical speak mumbo jumbo is a language I just don't know how to converse in. ARRG! (The only point in this blog that is anything piratey related. If you wanted more about pirates, google it) ((That was me trying to be witty like the other bloggers I follow...how'd I do?))
I guess I should get back to it...my professor has been kind enough to allow me an extra few days, best I not take too much longer.
But before I go, I'd like to list a few prayer requests...if you think about me from time to time, here are some things I've got going on that I could use some extra guidance/comfort/peace in:
- 1. I'm applying for a "job" that is really exciting and right up my alley, please pray the interview goes well and that I would say and be exactly who God asks me to be.
- 2. School sucks. My motivation is down to zero and I need some more to finish out this semester.
- 3. Along with motivation, I need some more self-discipline in almost every area of my life.
- 4. Patience. Due to the fact that I'm graduating in December I'm starting to do the "Planning" thing again that usually gets me in trouble because most of the plans are MINE and not all God's...I need some patience to hold still and wait for him to speak so I don't jump before he says to.
- 5. And last but not least....PEACE. Pray that my anxiety is down to a minimum while I run myself ragged the next 6 weeks as the semester is wrapping up...
For all who keep up with me on here, you are appreciated more than bloggy words can say.
Now back to that study I don't understand......
Hello my sweet girl ....I loved reading this. I laughed too - as I knew you were to be doing your homework and you were doing everything but........I am unsure if you read yesterday's Jesus Calling devotional but I will paraphrase: "This is a time in your life when you must learn to let go: of loved ones, of possessions, of control. In order to let go of something that is precious to you, you need to rest in My Presence, where you are complete. " That resting is the whole 'crux' of it - isn't it. Our flesh continues to rear its head, and we fight it....with HIM. HE has you. HE answers. Your dad and I pray for you daily. I can say that now, as I would pray for you often but I was unsure about him. Now I can say that ----he does. THAT is a miracle in itself. WOW. So I know that God will provide everything you need. Lord, I pray she finds that extra PEACE today, even though I know you have given her plenty...that resting in YOU is the challenge. Lord, help her to say 'no' to the other stuff and just get the homework done. Lord, help her to focus and let the 'mumbo jumbo' just flow out of her. Lord, open and shut doors for the meeting on Tuesday, we want her to do YOUR will. Lord, thank you for a daughter that I am so proud of. I am humbled YOU blessed her to us. Praise you Lord. Amen.
