I'm Dreaming of a White... Tuesday???

That's right folks, my ground is covered in snow. I went to bed last night (kinda late) to a windy but dry campus. Was awakened at about 3 am by a series of soft booms against the side of my building. It was the wind so I went back to sleep. I woke up this morning to a blanket of snow. We have a good 3 inches on everything. It's really beautiful but the walk in was slippery today. The junior high students had a field trip planned today, but it was cancelled. Recess is taking place in the gym today. The snow just altered lots of things!

I need your help today in prayer. One of our students is having a rough time. She tried to run away from her dorm yesterday and has been threatening to hurt herself if she is not allowed her own way. She comes from a background of abuse and mostly indifference and neglect and is really struggling to adapt. Please pray that she will feel God's love and accept His peace. She is such a sad little girl, just talking to her breaks my heart.

I'm so at peace here. I truly know that I am where God wants me. I enjoy my work but I also feel fulfilled and relaxed almost all the time. My mom lives 1 1/2 hours away so I get to see her regularly but I also have a lot of people to visit with here so I'm never lonely. God is so good in His plans for us. I certainly never imagined this as my path, but now I love it.

As Always,
