No longer a T.A.

I've always loved assisting. I think God made me special that way. From being a Program Assistant (PA) to a Resident Assistant (RA), from a Administrative Assistant (AA) to a Teacher's Assistant (TA), I've enjoyed them all! I'm thankful for the various jobs and positions God has given me in the past (even that slightly horrid stint of being a Loan Processor.. *shudder*), and I believe that all my experiences in those workplaces will bring Him more glory in the future. Not just in knowing how to do things, but more in being able to interact with people and learning how to love people.

Anyway, enough about that, I just wanted to update that yesterday (March 26) was my last day of being a TA, a job I've been at since I graduated UCLA in '07. I will definitely miss the teachers, the kids, the job itself, the random surprises and treats we get for working there because the parents are ridiculously rich... :)

I also feel like God blessed me to be successful at this school. I grew in favor (not stature though) with teachers and kids, completely by His grace. I pray that God will use my life to impact these teachers and students (over 100 of them over the years, to be exact) for Christ.

So what will I do now that I'm jobless, for the first time in maybe 9 or 10 years? I'm hoping to spend at least three solid hours of devotion each day to help me prepare for the adventure ahead. I also need time for logistics, fundraising, etc. New chapters are beginning already :P. Excited.

The Lord is my Shepherd,

I shall not be in want.

He makes me lie down in green pastures

He leads me beside quiet waters

He restores my soul.
