Today, I've thought about all day what to post. I guess my biggest GodStop this week has to have been when i couldn't sleep Sat @ 2a.m. As some of you know I am a middle school teacher. My principal told me that a class that I dearly love may not be allowed to continue next year. I help 15 14 year olds produce a school news program. I gave up my planning period this year for this class to continue.(The teacher who started this program left our school for a better paying job, imagine that. Anyhow, I was shocked and didn't know how to respond. So God and I talked for quite some time Sat. morning. Monday afternoon I had the opportunity to share with my principal that I would love for this program to continue. I told him that God and I talked and came up with some solutions. He allowed me to share those and he said he'd think and pray about it.
Now, I think my GodStop is that God cares even about the little things in my life that I am passionate about. Also, to be able to have a boss that I can openly say God & I were talking and he jokingly say well that's why he was busy when I was trying to talk to him at the same time. I'm very fortunate and blessed.
The last thing that I would like to share as another GodStop is that while I was studying my SS lesson the other night and it was talking about Timothy's mother and grandmother teaching him about God. It made me very proud that my own mother and grandmother made sure that I knew who God was. One of my fondest memories of my granny(whose in heaven now), we would all go to bed and she would sit in the living room and read a chapter from the big family Bible every night aloud to all of us. What a legacy she left.
Praise God for Godly men and women who brought me up to love the LORD.

That is a BIG Godstop! Especially the way things are now. How awesome that you can say God's name and talk about prayer to your principal. I think the best legacy we can leave our children is to teach them to love God and His Word. These are what last for eternity. :o)
Praise Him for working in every area of our lives. He knows our heart's desire. Thanks for sharing today.
You said.. "I think my GodStop is that God cares even about the little things in my life that I am passionate about..."
How awesome! We have a tendency to put limitations on what God can and will handle or cares about....you're right, even the little things that are important to us are important to Him.
Thank you for sharing this insight...
Wow, such a great God stop.
