Its Friday. Friday means the end of a busy work week, late night, and also Five Minute Friday blogging. I enjoy linking up with The Gypsy Mama, and joining in the wonderful unedited five minutes of writing. I love letting my fingers dance across my keyboard wondering deep down inside of any of my words are making sense. So now that my pandora radio station is playing, I am propped up against a pillow under my covers I am now ready to write.
Real
What is real in my life?
What is my life?
I am a teacher. I am a student (yes my students teach me a lot to). What is my purpose in teaching my fifteen students (10 boys, 5 girls) every Monday-Friday. Do I show them my real self---I have to admit they have seen me in ways that not even some of my friends have seen me. Am I being a true and real example to them and though my life showing them Christ.

What Do I Know About My God?
This past week my roommate (and friend) Joanna and I have started to do a weekly Bible study together. We talked about what we should do, and looked through my shelf of books. I happened to have the book by Mardi Collier What Do I Know About My God" on my shelf. I have only read the first chapter and for some reason stopped reading it (bad habit of mine). This book so far has been a blessing and I cannot wait to really dig into it with Jo. This week we talked about Why do I NEED to Know God. You know as a older Christian I have to admit I take the reasons why I have to know God for granted. I grew up in a Christian home, went to church when the door were opened, started ministry in the church at a young age visiting with my dad on the bus ministry, etc. I will have to save a whole other post for this topic that the Lord also has been working on in my life. But the Lord really showed me that God really wants me to get to know Him. There were six reasons (or points) why I need to know God.
1. Because God Wants Us to Know Him.
2. We can't love someone we don't know.
3. Because if we don't know the truth about our God we will believe Satan's lies
4. Because we need to make sure we are telling others the truth about God.
5. Because God has all the answers to life
6. Because life is ALL ABOUT GOD not me.
I will expound a little more on this this weekend.....good night friends~
