Somebody's Got a Case of the Mondays!


Technically it's Sunday, but I can imagine what I'll be like tomorrow at 7 am when the alarm goes off. It has been getting harder to get out of bed in the mornings for some reason; the motivation has been lacking. It is still fun and exciting to interact with the kids, but I suppose it is the "other stuff" that isn't exactly exciting. Be sure to pray that I stay motivated. I already have other things on my mind, such as planning for the school year ahead, trying to get credits transferred so I can graduate this year instead of next year, Willowlake prep for the fall, etc.
Also I really want to start impacting the lives of these teens for the better. I want to be able to share Christ with them and the realness of His grace and mercy. It would be a joy to see these young ones in eternity so you all had a chance to meet them.
I'm also struggling with personal sins; just trying to be fully transformed, which can be hard as I'm sure most of you know for yourselves. But I know what areas of my life I have to let the Lord into even more, and that's the important thing I suppose. It just can be hard to present the Gospel to people when you have this nagging voice inside your head reminding you of all your own shortcomings in your relationship with Christ; nobody wants to be a hypocrite. But, I am forgiven.
Well, I should get going, I have some reading to do before bed time at 9 pm. Check back tomorrow or Tuesday for some new pictures!
