Closing a door

Yesterday I sat in my last progression meeting.  I did my last secret pal gift swap.   I turned in grades for the last time.  I emptied an office.  I will turn in my keys Friday, after my last pinning.

Bittersweet.  I genuinely care for my co-workers.  I really like most of them a lot, some not so much. But I care for them.  I will miss them.  Students-I like most of them too.  I care for them all too.

Change.  I like change, always have.  See things different.  I can do that also.  But, when the change and the different take away tradition and divide and causes hostilities....is change healthy?

Only the Lord knows if Kimberly Sharps's heart is as good as she makes it sound.  Only the Lord knows if she is the right fit.  I know that the Lord blessed me with a way out - a new position.

I know my new job will bring many challenges and I will have much to learn, but I know that I am capable and smart.  I know that I can learn.  I know that I am scared of failing.  I know that I am walking in God's will for my life.  I know that I can do all things through Christ.  I know I did the right thing.

I know it is hard to say goodbye.  I closed one door and am opening a new door.
