Kids Say the Darndest Things…

Today in class we were discussing college majors with the students. As we discussed different majors, students began to inquire about what major they would need for a certain career. And then we have this question:

“What major would I need to have if I wanted to do subpenises?”

Eyebrow raise. Mouth drop. Wait, what?

Turns out the student wants a career in the criminal justice field. He’s just unable to pronounce the word “subpoena”…

Until next time…

Where I Am vs. Where I Want/Need to Be…

Here’s where I am:

“We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.” -2 Corinthians 4:8-9 (NIV)

Here’s where I want/need to be:

“Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.” -James 1:2-4 (NIV)

“Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised.” -Romans 4:20-21 (NIV)

Y’all pray for me.

Peace and Blessings…
