Burden- Five Minute Friday

It's been a crazy busy time at work with the end of the marking period, while also trying to have a life outside of work. Last weekend, I missed the opportunity to respond to the prompt, so here I am catching up with this past Friday's prompt.........

Burden

It's been lifted and shared. "Many hands make light work," Mom Moms used to say. 

Many hands came through my church during my senior year of college. It was time for me to student teach, my final semester, and I had to let some of my jobs go. I couldn't keep working the twenty plus hours of work study each week in addition to my internship and taking a few classes. Almost a thousand dollar balance remained on my tuition bill. No problems or worries. My church family generously paid the bill.

This past weekend my family shared leftovers with me, so I am set for meals most of this week!

STOP

Philippians 4:19 "but my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory." (KJV)

 This is another crazy, busy week at work which doesn't leave a lot of time for me to cook and prepare meals. Long hours with meeting after meeting for parent conferences and whatever else is on the agenda can wear. Last week, I did a few days of take out, but this week I look forward to home made sweet potato chili, lasagna, spaghetti and meatballs, and also a turkey wrap packed with all kinds of trimmings.

I cannot emphasize enough, where would we be with out a little or a lot of help from our family and friends? I am so thankful for their kindness and God's provision.
