Things to Pray On

Hey everybody, hope you are having a wonderful day! I'm really looking forward to tomorrow, where my beautiful wife and I get away to South Haven, MI. We're staying at a bed and breakfast with a fireplace, planning on kicking up our heals and doing some reading. Plus, they have couples' massage, so we'll each get a half hour from a professional.

But I've had an interesting week at school, filled with great news and frustration...

- Great news, a great JV player from another school (he was last year 16-2) is probably going to transfer to Bethany. I spent 45 minutes or so talking to his parents' and it was really positive. I'm crossing my fingers, and praying that this happens. It would be such a blessing because last season our chances at Sectional were ruined by one player leaving (being suspended). It would be an awesome act of God to see this season's chances renewed by one player coming.

- Bad news, I've been fighting anger at my student's this week. The annoying habits, the inattention, the talking when I'm trying to give instructions... all those middle school things, are just getting to me this week. I'm so tired of the fight. And so I've almost snapped in anger several times, which is really unusual for me.

I could use prayer for both of those things!

Love you all, and can't wait to hear more from you,
Matthew.
