Keeping Focused, Brings Peace

     I have to make myself stay focused, especially when there are many things to accomplish. Today, as I sat at my desk and looked over the piles of papers, I had no idea where to begin. I had prayed before arriving at my school that the Lord would help me get my classroom organized.
     As I began to jump from one project to another, I felt a gentle reminder in my spirit to finish one thing, before moving on to the next. Less than four hours later, the same room that was a mess with many unfinished projects was now much more organized and at least presentable for the students on Monday. Plus, I felt much more at peace.
     Thank you Lord, that you are the God of order, not chaos. Amen.

1 Corinthians 14:33 For God is not a God of disorder but of peace—as in all the congregations of the Lord’s people.
