2 Timothy 2:2
And what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also
When we are taught we are to take that knowledge and wisdom poured out from the teacher and impart it to others. We are to store it in our storehouses so that when the time comes we will be able to teach it. We never know when the time our opportunity to teach others will come. Prior to coming home I had no desire to teach in my church. But with certain events taking place that were very vulnerable I have been convicted to ask my church if I can teach the young girls in youth group. I know God wants me to but my flesh does not want to. I know God has brought me through struggles to empathize with others and be encouraging in the same faith that we share. Not everyone is a teacher but I know if God has called me to teach at my church I am to do it.

Application: pray for me that I have enough faith and boldness to teach and ask my church.

2 Corinthians 1:4–6

Who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For as we share abundantly in Christ’s sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too.  Last week ended with great hope. I had great hope that this week would be so much better since being more comfortable in the classroom. But starting the week off I had some conflicts. I got sick. I have amebas. I didn’t find out until today. I had to stay home from school for two days which was really hard for me. It was humbling watching someone else take my position and learn so much. It’s not an easy job but it’s rewarding. It was rewarding getting out of the car and seeing my kids run at me yelling “teacher” and giving me giant hugs. Staying home today was a challenge just because I don’t like to sit around resting. I like doing tasks and getting them done. But the Lord gave me this section of scripture a

If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness. As Christians we are to boast in the things that we are weak in. Because the things that we are weak in, Christ makes us strong. And this weak I am proclaiming how faithful the Lord has been. This pass weak I have been sick which makes me miss home. I miss the comforts. And I’ve been trying to hide it. I don’t like going up to someone and telling them my problems. I like to bottle things up inside which isn’t good. But that weakness was seen by a leader and I was approached. I was asked how I was doing. And I couldn’t lie. I said what was on my mind and woke up the next day praying Psalm 17:6-7. I had a feeling it was going to be a hard day so I prayed that the Lord would show is steadfast love and answer my call. After I had gotten all my work at school done I began to think about home again as I walked to the church’s cafe. As I was sitting there Betty asked if anyone wanted to help a prayer child read a  letter

psalm 81:16

It is very interesting because I am reading through the Bible in a year thematically as I came across this verse. I am reading through Number and Psalms right now. It is so interesting how both can correlate so well. The psalmist writes how the Lord brought the children of Israel through so much but they still did not walk in His ways. I have been challenged this week to walk in the Lord’s ways. That if I open my mouth, He will fill it. I’ve learned this week that if I need guidance from the Lord it requires faith. Ive needed faith to ask the Lord for strength as I work with kids each day. In this verse rock is looked at as a difficulty. And the Lord always gives us something sweet from a hard time or a rock we have to jump over. This week has been tough just like last. It was tiring being in class with kids who don’t listen or respect me. But there is honey that comes from the rock. A little boy in my class, Shadrack, is friends with Joel and he came to our home yesterday. This boy
