Don't Count the Days, Make the Day's Count

Hopefully you are enjoying the spring weather and anticipating a beautiful summer.  For some of you, the school year is coming to an end.  Congrats to those graduating and to those who have made it through another year of learning.   It seems like we are just getting starting on our third term however, we've already finished 4 weeks of school.    The time is flying by and as they do I'm reflecting a phrase I heard just before leaving the States.  It says  " The way you spend your days is the way you spend your life."   Well, as I think of my days that have blurred by, I wonder how am I spending my life.  It is a constant reminder to me to make the days count,.... not just to count the days.   I spend a lot of time teaching, organizing, searching for the things I lost because I still need to organize, preparing for the next class or rehearsal, learning about new technology...and the list goes on.  However, my awareness is heightened to what is most important.  I must spend my days building up individuals in their relationship with Christ and focusing on Kingdom work.  I hope you find at the end of today that you can see some ways that you've laughed, loved and learned, all because of Christ and his call to seek His kingdom first.  Please check out the prayer request section of the web site for updated requests.
