"Something About Today..."

My 500 Words

The alarm goes off at 5am. That's when my day begins..."Thank You, Father, God for this day...

I muttered. I know it is going to be a good day. I am proclaiming and professing His grace that overflows and my steps guided by His might. Because the Lord does it exceedingly if we believe and I believe with all my heart. It may not be in the luxury and leisure of amenities but in the wealth of tough experiences/situations that He allowed me in to get through His present help to build me
strength, confidence, and faith in His faithfulness. Nothing compares to the growing saving knowledge of God, His Word, The Bible.
In the physical realm, teaching/working with special needs children today is like any other day. 
You help them with their goals which are individually designed according to their disabilities. They're very routine oriented so if there is a change in their schedule or anything that contributes
to disturb their routine, destructive behavior occurs and if you're not equipped to de-escalate the situation, you lose that battle or challenge.
Today I find myself running/chasing after one child. At breakfast in the cafeteria, he ran to the nurse's station so quick that I found him lying down in the bed with his legs crossed and a
magazine on his hand. What a marvelous sight! You can't really get mad on him after that.
I'm just thankful that he's safe. He sure knows where to go. I believe that God has prepared me especially today to watch over him. During our rotation learning time, I was facilitating the children on the computer area and also making sure everybody is where he/she should be.
Even with my eyes focused on this child, he managed to run to the door four times but stopped him before he could open it. We have a buzzer installed at the door but that doesn't prevent any child from
trying to run out of the classroom. So every transition we did today, I was on the lookout.
He tried to run in Music, & in P. E. I had a special gear somewhat for I almost knew when he was going to do it. Got my running shoes and the kind of patience I needed today.
Thank God for Fasting and praying and praising the Lord for every trial that comes my way.
While writing this I am thinking that I am fortunate enough to do a job that still impassioned me
to wake up early in the morning with hope and no back pains and migraines. 

What I'm saying is that the only way and there's no other way to be able to make it through 
the day with all the blaring noises around us without your faith that there is the God that is for us.
There is the God that fights for us and He delivers...
We may be encountering many setbacks and struggling to stay sane but I promise you with God, nothing is impossible. He's just waiting on us to run to him not away from him. He's the only one
that could love you to the infinity. Let him come in Today in your heart of heart...
