On Sunday’s I teach a first grade Sunday school class, what a blessing those children have been in my life. They really know how to melt my heart. It has been such a neat experience to be a part of their little worlds each week, even if it is only just an hour. I find it funny that although I’m supposed to be teaching them, they really have been teaching me. Reminding me time and time again what it is like to have a childlike faith.
After class I love watching them get picked up by their parents. They get so excited to show them what they made or tell their parents what they did in class. In more ways than one I find myself wanting to have that. Even though I considered myself blessed with what I do have, I still feel like something is missing. By default, I have such a desire to be in love with the “right guy”. Being able not only to share my life with him, but to build a family with him. It is like I can see it happening but I can’t seem to grasp it. Granted every relationship I’ve had up to this point has been better than the last. However, until the day comes when God blesses me to find such a love, I will have to be content. Having a childlike faith, like the first graders in my Sunday school class.
“I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.” -Philippians 4:12
