Tip #45 on being a youth pastors wife..


so I was right..I wasn't going to be very good at updating but I have come to learn that it will be a random whenever i learn a lesson/good point kinda post type thing..

so tip #45:
Know now that you will sometimes spend evenings alone while the hubby gets to go to movies, cool parties and awesome other events to take time to be with the youth. 

for example..

tonight I am in class till 10p and I get a text at 9:51p asking if Joel could go to the movies with a youth to see a movie that I have been wanting to see for quiet sometime..Joel being the man that he is takes time to ask me but he knows im going to say yes to the oppurtunity so he is already on the way with him to the movie..so cute!

but as I sit here all by myself I think to myself how truly blessed I am to have a husband that will take time out of his time off..his sleep..his relaxiation time to go out and be with a youth just to gain a better relationship with him..

so now i have realized that I need to quit school..quit my job and become Joels assistant so that I can hang out with our kids..outside of church during their school hours..the games that I have to miss and the awesome parties that im always invited to but can never make it..so the question is..do I quit or work around hahaha

On another note... I have gotten so much done tonight while in class such as making my business card..advertisment ideas..phamplet to pass out..and even some editing!

So as Joel is out at the movies..I get to sit here all by myself..eat ice cream..work on things and watch...DESPICABLE ME!!! ahahahahahahahhahahaha 

I know what you're thinkin.... WHAAAAAAAAt...be jealous..

Love you all and hope that you are allowing God to use you in big ways!

Is it true...

Sitting in my students art class today we had a project to draw our favorite animal and tell why we chose the animal that we did.. As I sat and watched my students draw... some drew dogs.. A bear.. A giraffe and so on when I overheard what one of the other kids was drawing in the class.. He started off drawing a snake and explaining that he is sneaky and that's why he drew the snake and when he was told that it was a contest in a way he decided to draw another animal that he knew would win because of what it represented and everyone would choose it because of that and that was the Jesus fish.. When he started talking about how he wanted to draw it because everyone cant not choose the Jesus fish because if they didn't choose it then Jesus would be mad and all this other stuff it made me start to think... The kid said all of this in a joking matter and made sure everyone around him was laughing some way because he wanted to sound really cool.. Of course he didn't win beca...

Tip #9 for being a youth pastor wife!

" In His great mercy he has given us new birth into living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil, or fade..." - 1 Peter 1:3 So many times in my life and even right now in my life I can feel at my lowest and feel like I am fading with life and it's brought on difficulties. In life we always have days, weeks and sometimes even months when we feel at our lowest and feel like it will never get better. My day is like that today when everything gets under your skin and you get so irritable. Being at work is something I love but days like today when the classroom is crazy, students are upset and crying, matientence people are fixing things, people over the loud speaker and everyone around you talking louder then the person next to you so you can be heard and you feel like your body is going to explode! As I sit there at my desk I couldn't do anything but pull my Bible out and just get into His word an...
