RIGHT THERE

I DIDN'T KNOW IT BEFORE, BUT I KNOW IT NOW THAT YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN RIGHT HERE FOR ME, DON'T TURN YOUR BACK ON ME NOW. DON'T THROW ME OUT, DON'T ABANDON ME. YOU'VE ALWAYS KEPT THE DOOR OPEN. DON'T CLOSE THE DOOR NOW. THANK YOU FOR SENDING MINISTERING ANGELS TO HELP ME. THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO WONDER AND DOUBT AND NOT LOSE YOU IN THE PROCESS. THANK YOU FOR LOVING ME. FATHER GOD THANK YOU FOR FORGIVING ME. THANK YOU FOR CONTINUING TO BELIEVE THAT I HAVE A PURPOSE IN YOUR LIFE. LORD LET ME NOT FEAR WHAT YOU HAVE IN THE FUTURE FOR ME. LORD I WILL NOT ABANDON MY JOURNEY. THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD IS SOMETHING I CONTINUE TO DESIRE. I PRAY TO GOD EVERY DAY AND NIGHT FOR HELP AND GUIDANCE. LORD WHEN YOU GIVE ME A TASK, I WANT TO DO IT, AND BE THE BEST THAT I CAN BE AT THAT TASK. LORD, GIVE ME STRENGTH AND VISION AND HUMOR FOR MY DAY TOMORROW. DON'T LET MY PERSONAL FEELINGS GET IN THE WAY OF MY TASK, MY JOB. WHAT I HAVE TO DO I WANT TO DO WELL AND WITH A POSITIVE ATTITUDE. I DON'T WANT TO GO TO A JOB THAT I HATE AND FIND MYSELF DESPISING MY STUDENTS. i CONTINUE TO SAY ITS DIFFICULT TO TEACH STUDENTS WITH DRUG PROBLEMS, EITHER BEING BORN WITH DRUGS IN THEIR SYSTEM, PARENTS THAT USED OR ARE USING DRUGS, AND SOME OF THE STUDENTS THEMSELVES ARE USING OR AROUND STUDENTS WHO USE DRUGS DAILY. LORD, I THEY HAVE HAD SOME EXTREMELY DIFFICULT CHALLENGES THESE PAST TWO WEEKS, BUT LET THEM COME IN WITH A POSITIVE ATTITUDE, READY TO LEARN. NOT JUST TRYING TO CATCH UP WITH THEIR FRIENDS AND FIND OUT THE LATEST GOSSIP. DON'T LET THEM TALK TOO MUCH AND DON' LET ME SCREAM AT THEM TOO SOON. ALLOW US TO MISS EACH OTHER AND BE GLAD TO SEE EACH OTHER, AT LEAST FOR THE MORNING. DON'T LET THEM GET ON MY NERVES TOO QUICKLY. GIVE ME STRENGTH LORD. ALLOW ME TO GET SOME SLEEP TONIGHT. LET ME GET UP EARLY SO I CAN GO IN EARLY ENOUGH TO PREPARE THE LAB FOR THE EIGHTH GRADERS, THEN I AM GONE FOR THE AFTERNOON. I KNOW IT WILL BE A CHALLENGE, BUT ALLOW ME TO MEET THAT CHALLENGE. BE BLESSED TONIGHT AND BE A BLESSING TO SOMEONE IN THE MORNING. I LOVE YOU. (ALL CAPS, ITS LIKE I'M SHOUTING FROM THE MOUNTAIN TOPS)
