I had Explorers last night. Leah was unable to make it and that made me work harder than I normally would. Not that I don’t work when she is there but I have come to depend on her and pull back some so that she can do her thing. James said something that struck me last night. He said, “You’re the boss, you tell me” I chuckled. Yeah, technically I am the boss but, as I told him, but I want them (my helpers) to have input and say too! The kids were just not listening last night. Pastor Gen was worried it was because we didn’t have enough help but I told her that no, it was just the kids this evening. It’s crazy how some days they can be totally off the wall. I told them the story of the woman and her two coins. While the majority of my kids weren’t listening all night there were a few who really got it and helped me realize I wasn’t talking to brick wall and I was making sense. What a refreshing feeling after that long night.
