Are you in need?

Tomorrow morning during our time of Praise and Worship, we are singing a song that just gets me everytime. This song reminds me that in my time of need, no matter what the situation, I ALWAYS have someone to rescue me! Tomorrow, 9am, First Baptist Icard...."Jesus Saves!"

"Jesus Saves" by Travis Cottrell and Prestonwood Baptist Church

You just thought you knew everything there is to know about me, huh? Let's see....I am a teacher....check....huge Tennessee fan...check....hate raisins...check....a Christian...check...loves music...check...former hitch hiker....check..no wait...what? Ah, so you DON'T know everything about me! Okay, let's start with the latter... 10. I went to Europe the first time as a junior at Lenoir-Rhyne. I was with a family from LR, and then we also traveled with two guys from New York and a girl from Canada. Most of the group went to ski. Me...I tried skiing for 30 minutes and almost did not live to tell about it. So I went sightseeing, and how do you sight see in Europe? Hitch hike!! It was totally safe, and I was always with someone in the group, usually. And I decided it was best not to share this news with my parents until AFTER I returned from Europe! 9. I have a hard time telling my left from my right. I have to stop and think about it almost every time. Ask my husband and ...

And 15 months later.....She's back!

I have had several folks "ask" for me to start blogging again. So, I have succumbed to the pressure of sharing my crazy life with the world again! Today, I have felt more like a counselor than a teacher. I guess both jobs go hand-in-hand as I have found an effective teacher wears many hats: mom, dad, coach, referee, entertainer, comedian, nurse, doctor, custodian, librarian, media specialist, babysitter, and oh yeah, counselor and teacher. Yesterday, one of my kids lost her dad to cancer. She was brave enough to be with him when he left this world. I could never have done that at 15. I could not even look at someone dead at 15, let alone my parent. Then another student, who lost his mom to cancer several years ago, felt responsible for her death because of his bad behavior. Can you imagine carrying around that load all these years? That you felt that you deserved for your mom to die because of your bad behavior? A conversation with another student last week led to church...

Why? Where? When? What? Who?

     About five minutes ago, Tim Tebow and the Broncos charged their way into another win in the NFL Playoffs. Not only was it the first game with the new Overtime rules (which I am still trying to process), but it was another chance for the media to take a poke at Tebow's faith. Did you see the NFL commentators after the game?? Do you believe Tebow has what it takes to win another game next week? And their response?? Bowing their heads as if in prayer. Was this meant to put down Tebow...again....or are they beginning to eat their words...again?  For most of the season, Tim Tebow has been ridiculed, put down, questioned, and scoffed because of his faith on and off the football field.  So my question is...Why?      Why so much coverage about Tebow's faith in Christ? Why not share some "love" with other players who share their beliefs? What about the Rastafarian's (those with the long dred locks)? Why not pick on them about their f...
