I pretty much hate teachers at this time of year. Yes, I am fully aware of the irrationality of that but the fact is that they do get a ridiculously nice amount of holidays. It is a source of much bitterness for me – especially when I got only one little single day off for Easter!!
But now that I’ve got that moan out of my system I have to admit that I’ve had a really special Easter…Basically I’ve been reminded of the value of just being…of reflecting, of chilling out and sitting at Jesus’ feet.
I haven’t blogged for a while – I’ve barely been able to figure out my own thoughts, let alone try to express them here. I guess I’d been letting fear sink me quite a lot…and freaking out that I’d never be ready for the stuff I feel God is calling me too. My confidence had taken a dip…I was feeling strangely unexcited about my own passions. I badly needed to sit in His presence and it took someone else to point that out to me.
And so this Easter I rediscovered that Jesus has provided me with a grace space…that place to come and lay it all down…that place where I can be myself and it’s all ok…that place where I’m re-inspired, reassured and revived…that place where it’s just Him and me and where I can say thanks and sorry and I love You.
