Only a couple of more weeks of school. I am still applying for school jobs and church jobs. Nothing has opened up yet for us. We are still praying that our house will sell. We did have a "looker" this week, but no word yet from the realtor.
God seems to keep giving us hope through various scripture passages that He will answer soon. Sometimes I wonder why I am still here in La Junta when we thought we would be moving a lot sooner. A fellow teacher at my school said that God must have me at that school for a purpose--perhaps to reach a certain student. But I don't know that that has happened yet. I do pray for several of my students and hope that God will reach them either through me or through another student. I have gotten to know several of the Christian kids through the FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes) meetings that we have each week at school. And I pray for them that they would be good testimonies to the other students. It is actually a fairly large gathering every week--about 60 students (in a school of about 400). Of course, some of them come for the free lunch provided by parents, but they also hear a short Christian message while there. We all need to be praying for our Christian students and teachers in the public schools! They can have a tremendous impact for Christ.
