Wednesday will be our last day with our lovely student teacher-Miss Reis. She has been an asset to our room and the children and I will miss her. We wish her all the best as she goes to another school to complete her student teaching.

This week I have been thinking about God’s Word. It is had to describe how awesome the promises God has made us in it.  I was struck by this verse;

And you will know the the truth, and the truth will set you free. John 8:32.

    To me this means that if I am feeling burdened about something, I can ask God to show me His truth about what’s going on. I need to look to the Bible and study it until I find His promise for the situation.  I am so thankful that I don’t have to go through things on my own.   I hope this encourages you in some small way.

Have a great week…Mrs. Lively
