I have heard a lot about blogging, tried it briefly (check out youth
work blogg) but have not yet been committed enough.
After reading a few other peoples bloggs I thought that I would try
again, I have not doubt I will be repeating these words again.
I guess that because it is my blogg I can talk or type, about anything
that I want. Well today has been a rather strange day, as i entered
school it all started. A young person who I work with was sitting in
reception, so I said hello, how you doing and so on. i then asked her
how she was doing, she said that she is not well and going home. I
know this the norm for any school kid, but I know about her and just
felt really sad for all that she is going through.
Next I went to some teachers in school who are great and are now good
friends, they too were have a hard day. I talked to them about what
was happening and it was all about what the mentees were going through.
I left school today with a heavy heart, I just had a lot of these
young people on my mind. I could not stop thinking about all that they
had to go though at such a young age. I spent some time praying for
them, but then started to think how can I help and support them? To
this question I am still looking for divine answers.
It has been fantastic in school recently, just getting to know teachers
better and feeling like I am becoming a real part of the school. As I
am going to be going full time LCET and leaving the church youth work,
I still feel slightly nervous, it has not helped not being able to
share with all my church family that I am leaving. I am sure everyone
will find out soon.
Other life struggles, but these are personal. i really want to have a
God centered life but am always facing the same struggle... forgetting
to look to God daily. I am trying to re-learn and start each day with
some worship and prayer, I will keep you posted.
Any way that is enough for now or I will have nothing to talk about
later.

i'm just curious.. you say you are a youth worker, yet you talk about schools? i think of youth worker as social worker.... is this what you are, or are you going to a university to earn a degree of some sort as well as working? just trying to figure out what context this school you are talking about sits in. your sister in Christ...
