Calvary Church

A few years back I was in a transition period of life.  That interim time between ministry positions led me to a job at a local high school.  Although I enjoy working with students, this job was different.  I was working with student who had been separated from regular classes due to behavioral problems.  Needless to say, the classroom environment was hostile.  With a week of being their I found myself hating the job and feeling stuck!  Have you ever been in that position before?  My source of strength & solitude was 1 Peter 5:7 which says we can, “cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” Praying that and other Scriptures, over and over, on a daily basis helped me keep my sanity.  It also helped me remember that Christ had me there for a reason – to glorify Him.  Despite being a difficult period in my life, that year at the high school helped me grow in my faith.  I suppose you could say, Jesus was in the classroom – my office!
