Yesterday I wrote that we’d be starting a class for couples today. That is happening in just a few hours. As I brought the idea to our counseling group last Fall I had it in my mind that we would each take a section of the class and that is happening. However, I was going to have the last 2 weeks for my part with the other two seasoned counselors taking the first 4 weeks. This way I’d get comfortable (as best as possible) by following their way of presenting to the group. I’ve taught classes all of my adult years as an educator. but, teaching from a counseling perspective is still insecure for me.

About 4 weeks ago we needed to rearrange the most seasoned counselor’s time. She and her husband were going to be gone this first week. That was OK because I’d still have the two weeks to observe. Well, as only Jesus does, I get a text Friday that the other one is very sick with this flu and she can’t be here today either. Well, as I brought all of this to Jesus this morning while journaling I had to smile. I told Jesus He sure has a way of making this class just as He wants it. What is so amazing to me is that I’ve felt as though the part I’m presenting needs to start the class. The other two topics are better taught when the participants have reawakened to their commitment to being more selfless in their marriage commitment.

So, instead of balking at today’s structure, I’ve thanked God for bringing me to His Way. Along with that, I somehow sense that peace that passeth all understanding. God is SO AMAZING!
