Here’s the problem, I have been so distracted by everything that I have to do and learn that I keep forgetting why I am here and where my focus should be. I am here to praise the Lord and my focus should be on him. What I do at my placement has an eternal consequence and I keep forgetting this. Oh, I wish I could remember! These students are not just students but souls that will one day go to heaven or to hell. I do wish to remember this when I teach and interact with them, but so far it eludes me. It is so strange for me to be so distracted. I am very much used to having time to think on things above.
I do believe this will pass. Once there is not so much to learn each day it will be much easier. Still, meanwhile, pray that I may remember that these students are more than just students and that God has me here for a greater purpose than to just teach math.
