If I Never Teach Again, Will I Still Praise HIM?

That's a good question isn't it? I love teaching, I love my students, I love the challenge, I love it; but I love my Lord and Saviour even more! I struggled for 5 years to get my degree and thought that I would teach until I was married and had children. To answer my question though, YES I will now, still, and forever more praise HIM! If his perfect will is for me to be a sub or check out girl I can only imagine how much more I will love it! I don't know what God is refining me for (see previous post) but I praise Him for what He has, is, and will do! I praise Him for the peace that God and God alone has brought! Even in my moments of weakness and fear, which are many; He speaks to me, to calm me, bring peace and understanding that HE is in control and when I am ready HE will provide me a job! I praise Him for giving me the opportunity and strength to share my faith with others and pray that He will provide me with even more opportunities to do that!


It Is Well With My Soul

When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.

Refrain:
It is well, with my soul,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.

My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!
My sin, not in part but the whole,
Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more,
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!
For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live:

And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight,
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend,
Even so, it is well with my soul.
