Yesterday was a wonderful day, but unbelievably long. I didn't want to get up this morning. I barely had time to be in God's word this morning before getting out the door. I prayed that today would be a little slower. God answered my prayer. It was a "little" slower!
My passage today was from Genesis 11, the Tower of Babel. I wonder at all the attemps man has made to build from his own efforts a path to heaven, beginning with the Tower of Babel. We continue to do so today. From Mormonism, Hinduism, Budism, Johovah's Witnesses, and yes, even so called Christians who are trying to "be good enough" to get to God.
Ephesians 2:8,9 (ESV)
For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
Let us rest completely in God's power and works to save us rather than attempt failed good works out of a sinful nature.
Tuesday was a different day for me. Rather than spending the day in a specific classroom or as the In School Detention Instructor, I was assigned specific students to monitor all day. I was a real blessing to see the different teachers in the classroom. I have always known that Mrs. Sharry and Mrs. Kimble are wonderful teachers, but they both were outstanding on this day. It was a blessing to see them in action, and I was blessed to be able to tell them. I hope you are an encouragement to others when you see them doing a good job!
After school, I simply went home and relaxed. It has been a very busy two weeks and it was nice to be able to just relax for the night with my bride. Thank you Lord for a blessed day.
