deliver me.

...it is not that i found you, but You found me.

you allowed me to see you for who you truly are and with that, you helped me to trust you with my life, to have an open mind to see the truth in your word, to have a heart and desire to be used by you. it is how you have changed me that i am truly thankful for. it is the battle within me that keeps me away. help deliver me from myself. "Jesus...Jesus...deliver me, come pull me through. come pull me through." [david crowder band]

observation

what i learned today from observing at morton elementary:

when a student answers a question correctly,
the teacher praises him/her and says, "very good! kiss your brain!!"

when students come back from bathroom,
the teacher doesn't ask "did you wash your hands?"
instead they say, "you want a squirt?" [of antibacterial gel]

when a student complains, "why do boys get to go first and not girls?"
teacher responds, "to make sure it's safe!"
[needless to say this was a male teacher...]

day full of goodness i say....day full of goodness.
