Tip #345 of being a youth pastors wife!

You will get your heart broken!

Working in this high school everyday my heart breaks for these students. It's funny once your heart goes towards youth every time you see youth you tend to cling to them!

Walking these halls and seeing their faces.. Their relationships.. Their desperate call for attention and their attitudes it kills me because I know they could have so much more! Being in high school isn't easy and I understand that but don't they know there is so much more!

Everyday I go out of our classroom and join up with another classroom that one of my students goes to and I sit here and just watch these students.. I watch and see myself in these students and think about the things I did in high school and how I learned from it so much but wish I could just tell them there is so much more.. I hear their conversations and it makes me want to leave the room because I cant even think about the stuff their doing.. I see the way they act and I see the way they dot care..

This school needs Jesus and he calls me and fellow Christians in this school to show them that but it's so hard.. They make me nervous I'm scared for my life sometimes and I feel like they won't even listen but I can't get discouraged because I know God can move in this school and make it so much better than I ever could..

So as you read this.. If there are people in your life or even a whole school that needs love.. Encouragement.. Or even Jesus do not be discouraged because even though they go through it now God can move mountains and make any situation better...

Lord help me!

Here goes..

and it begins. Starting a blog is terrifying to me. Things come to mind for fears such as                     -I wont be good at this.                     - No one will care                      - I wont know what to talk about                       - I'll never update But on the other hand, I am so excited because I am able to express so many different things.. so...here goes.

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....

When its time to leave...

coming to the end of it all, i didnt think or even want to be the one to dwell on it but its happening as I sit in my last class of my undergraduate degree.. it's finally here... As I sit here and drive on campus, I get overwhelmed with thinking of everything God has done in my life here at Ohio Christian University! The Graduation of High School was the start of it all!  coming into school only knowing one person..she made it so much easier for me!  as time went on our group of friends began to grow and the memories began!!!! Student Life!   Falling In Love with My Best Friend! Celebrating Weddings!! and as it all comes to a close..i will remember..
