Show me your ways, O Lord
teach me your paths
guide me in your truth
and teach me
for you are God my Saviour
and my hope is in you all day long.
Psalm 25:4,5
The cry from the heart of one who wants to be led by His spirit every day in the the leading of the ones entrusted to her care.
Again I am confronted by my own bad behaviour as I spend all day with my children, wanting to push my own agenda, tick the boxes of what I define as learning and I wonder why they buck this system, where really I'm just bringing the classroom home, forgetting that God put in them the desire to learn naturally and they do, despite me. It says in His word that if anyone lacks wisdom he should ask God who will give generously... His wisdom brought me hope this week, hope I needed to continue down this path, hope that reminded me of the vision that had gotten a little blurry of late, hope that I can do all things through Him who strengthens me and the hope of a new place... a foreign place, though it shouldn't be...a place where I live by faith for the day, led by His spirit, asking Him what He has for us, so we don't miss what matters each day...I am learning, a little!
