Lighten up, Teacha Christin!
“The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me; your love, O LORD, endures forever— do not abandon the works of your hands.”- Psalm 138:8 Wow. I don’t even know how to sum up the past few days. There are literally no words to describe the absolute peace that I feel and the sense of purpose that has completely overwhelmed me. Don’t tell me God doesn’t answer prayer, because my life is most certainly a living testimony to that. So, to all of you who are continually throwin̵...

Lucky.
The world always looks brighter from behind a smile. -Author Unknown << Some of my 6th graders. This week has been unreal, and I’m pretty sure I’m the most blessed person on the planet.
