Give it up!

I don't understand why I can't give it up to Him. I know He will lead me through tough times, but, for some reason, I think I can do it myself. About two weeks ago, I had some issues come up in my band program at school. Without getting into details, the situation is one I hope I never have to endure again in my career. Unfortunately, I am still enduring this one. It just won't go away, not that I expected it to, I just wish there was an end in sight. Yes, I know, "this too shall pass", but I want it to pass right now.

I will learn my lesson from this one. I need to let the Lord take care of me in times like this rather than ignore Him and suffer the heartache.

Lord, continue to let me make decisions that educate kids and teach them how to be better people. Lord, when I do this, please allow the parents of these kids to appreciate my efforts rather than disagree with them. Forgive me for ignoring you during this time when I should have been turning to you for answers. Forgive me for not talking to you enough, help me change this, it's in my heart to do it. Amen.
