There is so much potential and anticipation at the beginning
of a new school year.
I’ve been preparing for students to return. I’ve repainted
my office and cleaned the carpets (we have a lot of hot cocoa during the year
and my carpets suffer, from the spills and
the foot traffic). I resurfaced the chalkboard wall for the
question of the day to be posted each afternoon. I’m starting fresh with a
clean slate--literally. The snacks are
stocked for the next couple of weeks. We’re putting together our calendar and
looking at exactly what it is that God wants me to share throughout the year.
With all of my preparations, though, I know that God has
been preparing for this season for a long time, too. He knows exactly who will
be coming to Flandreau Indian School to be our students this year; the
challenges that they’re bringing with them and I know He’s been preparing the
hearts of those that He wants to meet Him here, some for the first time.
I look
forward to the opportunities that He is placing before us and want to be
responsive to appointments that He is making. It’s going to be a great year!
‘In their hearts humans plan their course but the Lord
establishes their steps.’ Proverbs 16:9
