02/25/16

Tomorrow is my test to see if I can student teach next spring.
God I pray that You would give me rest tonight.
Help me sleep.
Be with me as I take this thing
One step closer to teaching
One step closer to my dream

I saw this in the news today. I almost texted her to hear her thoughts...almost.
I wish Bea were here with me.
She always knew how to calm me down when I would freak out.
I can see her now offering to drive me to the test.
Offering to get Tim Horton's for breakfast before.
She would get a coffee and that oatmeal with the mix in berries. I'd get a black coffee. She'd tell me I want a donut too. I'd say just coffee. She would use that voice her mother uses turn to the cashier and add one donut to the order...every time. :)
Making me a card to encourage me.
leave a note on my car.
She helped me find peace.
Always there.

I miss the man she made me.
I wish Bea were here with me.
Next to me yes but also this journey.

God I pray that You would calm my mind tonight.
No dreams about her tonight.
No laying restlessly.
Give me peace oh God.

How silly my stress must seem to the omniscient Creator.
How many lives You have watched grow and wither, I wonder if it makes You hopeful or sad.

Give me peace oh God.
