Thirty

Summer is here. As a teacher its like hitting a brick wall of unbusyness- I go from 14 hour days with 100 or so students to almost nothing. Some of that time will be spent working but there are no immediate demands on my time


I turned thirty recently.
Its been a good decade, different than what I set out to achieve as I graduated high school.
I graduated college, got married, had my first kid. Im not sure what the next decade will bring, but it will probably be something unexpected. I keep reading over the story of Joseph. He was always in places where I can only assume he didn't want to be (like the bottom of a pit or in jail) and yet he was faithful and eventually was used in mighty ways for the protection of an entire country as well as his own family. The lesson for me is to be faithful where I am at and hopeful for the future.
