I jumped on the banwagon...

As I sit down to write this post, I continue to think about the events of the last few weeks. They have been tough to work through. Causing an aray of emotions, some of which I'm not sure I've ever felt. Sometimes I wonder when health problems will not be in the cards for my family...maybe someday. God doesn't give us more than we can handle...right?
I've started really traveling at work. I love it! I absolutely love it! I've had the opportunity to meet with several coaches in the area, as well as out west. I am  really enjoying getting to know them, and figure out how I can best serve them and the huddles at their schools. I've been developing a pretty cool relationship with some girls at a school here locally. They are wanting to start a FCA at their school, but cannot find a teacher who will support them. I feel bad for the students who are super pumped up about it, and I wish I could do something. The girls have not lost heart yet! They are still powering forward with enthusiam and ready to start as soon as they find a teacher. It's been super fun to get to know the girls during this process!

I am realizing how much work goes into friendships. It is really tough to maintain relationships with people when it is pretty one-sided. More on this when I have more thoughts together...this is just something I've been wrestling through lately. One thing I know is for sure though, the work is worth it if the friend is really that important.*note: I am not a master at maintaining friendships, I am preaching to the choir on this, I know that for sure*

Finally, I have caved. I have been reading the Hunger Games. So far it's pretty good. I don't have a whole lot of time to read, but I've enjoyed what I have read so far. I am not a speed reader, so saying I am still on book one after having it for 5 days would be a shock to many I am sure. Most people I know would have them all read in 5 days. Well, I am not most people, and I definately do not have the time to devote to reading books like that. I really have a hard time reading fiction books, but I am really really trying!!

Well, I must go finish preparing for an event tomorrow.

FOR HIS GLORY
