need job!

Well, I was a little discouraged when they told me I may not be getting paid for coaching volleyball here...I'm really pressed for cash these days and neither one of my interviews called me back with job offers. Its not even like I need tons of money either...just enough to pay for gas to get to and from school...and my cell bill. But $0 plus $0 still equals a big fat $0 !!! Its just been a little discouraging lately~! I was kinda expecting this though because my devotions the past couple days have been centering on contentment in difficult circumstances...and trusting the Lord to carry me through. Today was a reminder that, in context, Phillipians 4:13 means that I can endure with contentment any circumstance brought my way "through Christ who gives me strenth." I find its hard to be content sometimes when I already had my mind made up on a certain result, and then it doesnt' happen. You know? But that is always best because it forces me to trust in God's planning and leading instead of my own ingenius plans! Its just a matter of faith, resting, and trusting. Lessons I am daily learning~!

Besides my financial issues, however, student teaching is going really well! My crazy junior high students today were OUT OF CONTROL! Wow, I kept saying things like...hmmmm, maybe we should pay attention to what we are learning instead of raising our hands to tell random stories in class, eh??? Then, yesterday, oh my, the saddest thing happened in front of my junior high class, but I feel bad posting it on the internet...you'll have to call to find out :) (this is a real story, not just a devious ploy to get friends to call me during my stay in bloomington).
