Today I return to the schedule of school/district visits. In the next 3 months I will be wrapping up the work of this year and the work of the past 3 years for this group of schools. Bigger than that is that I’ll be wrapping up the work of the past 50 years in education. I never thought I’d come to the end of this career path with a new path in front of me, yet I am so grateful to have this opportunity.

Today’s devotional stated, “Do not be afraid to follow me into the unknown…., I will restore you…., I will restore your mind and your heart…., I will restore your dreams. I will fulfill those desires within you and bring them to completion….” It concluded with the scripture from Psalms 51:12: “Let my passion for life be restored, tasting joy in every breakthrough you bring to me. Hold me close to you with a willing spirit that obeys whatever you say.”

Over and over God is grounding me in Him. It seems to me He is creating a foundation built on the fundamentals of spiritual living: TRUST, BELIEF, FAITH and so many more. These are not tangible in the flesh, but in the Spirit they are SOLID ROCKS!
