I know it sounds like the two couldn't possibly go together and I think upon closer examination that would be a fair assessment. However, there are times of insanity that are fun and much needed. I cannot say enough about how much I love working with the Junior High kiddos.
For so long I refused to get involved because I felt inadequate. I have nothing to offer them. I am a dork. I am so far from being "cool". I can barely text. I don't care for talking on the phone so much. I would rather be asleep at 10 pm than gossiping. The list goes on and on. What I have found though is when you listen to God and you step out in faith you will be pleased with the results. I have found that I love to work with those crazy girls and miraculously they love to be with me. (I don't know why) Every weekend they want to come home with me and be with my kids. I have really gotten to know some good kids and I can't wait to see the things they will do in the future for the Lord. I just pray that they keep their hearts and minds focused on God because the hard years are yet to come.
