Romans 3 -4 - His Faithfulness

For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23

Every day.

This morning I am reflecting on God's faithfulness in my life. Today I start a new job as a 6th grade resource teacher. For the past 7 years I have been a preschool special needs teacher. Some of those who know me very well know that I have said hundreds of times that I would NEVER teach middle school. Clearly that was not God's plan for me.

I sit here and think back to all of the times that he has covered me in His protection. I have been accused of things I didn't do, assaulted verbally and physically. and faced with difficult situations that were out of my control.

I have also made mistakes, hurt people's feelings, and have lived and worked outside of His will.

Through all of that he has forgiven me, protected me and sent people to encourage me.

I know this is all because I "believe in him who raised Jesus from the dead. He was delivered over to death for Mandey's (our) sins and was raised to life for Mandey's (our) justification".

I really don't know where I would be without my Lord and Savior. I can remember times when I was far away from Him but I can't imagine not knowing Him at all.

My prayer today as I have a fresh start at work is that I will live my life at home and at work to honor God and all that he has done and continues to do for me moment by moment. Great is thy faithfulness!
