Morning Prayers

There’s a lot going on that’s signaling some change in my life.  I’m very interested to see where this next month takes me and where I am come the first of the year.  I’ve really been trying to figure out where I’m meant to be.  I’ve been feeling a bit restless and unsatisfied, and I’m just trying to sort things out.  Though serving is good money, it’s not something I want to do long term, and it’s already starting to wear me out.

Last week, I was talking to a friend of mine (who is one of the many personal shrinks/cheerleaders I’m blessed to have in my life), and she was saying how I was really talented and have tons of options and possibilities in my life.  I just need to pick one.  My indecisive nature just can’t decide what I want.

How do I want to feel?  What do I want?

I want a steady, decent income.  I want the time and freedom to do things I love.  I want to create.  I want to write.  I want to sing.

I think I want a K-12 teaching job.  The stability of it, the pay, the holidays, the benefits and paid time off – it all sounds pretty appealing right now.  Then I’d have my evenings and weekends for creative work.  And I’d have long breaks and a summer off with a paycheck.

I don’t know where I’m meant to be, so I trust that Spirit will lead me.  I’m a good teacher and a better person.  I will do well no matter where I am – be it a 1st grade classroom or college classroom.  I release all of my worry and doubt.  I release my obsession with trying to figure it all out.  I ask Spirit, my angels, and my guides to direct me wherever I am meant to be.  I trust that the opportunities that present themselves are divinely inspired – that Spirit will bring me exactly what I need and that I’ll be placed exactly where I’m needed.

My teaching and time is my ministry, and I’ll bring a lot of good wherever I go.  Thank you, Spirit, for my talents and abilities.  Thank you for the goodness that flows through me that comes from You.  Thank you for all the blessings and goodness in my life.  Bless this day and all that it brings.

And so it is!
