The Only One

           I just want to write a fast blog entry here for tonight. Something was said again to me today that I found odd but it could have been true and probably is if I would just stop and think about it a little while. I had a person tell me today, that I was probably the only one around that went to a place like church. Here is why that person said that. I mean she had every right to and I wasn't offended by it at all but I just never really thought about it either in that place.
           I have a little child in my class, that his dad goes to the same church I go to, and the person just asked me if I went to that same church. I don't know how people find out of this stuff but they were just talking about it and wondered if it was me because I have been outspoken about my belief in Christ. I would mention little things like where I went to church and things like that so I just think I crossed their minds when the parents were talking about knowing someone from their own church. Yes, I am proud to say I go to that church and would go to no other.
            I just thought it was strange that the person would come to me first and ask me and said what was said. The person exact words were, "Well, you probably are the only one that goes to a church/place like that so we were wondering if you went to the same one." Now that I think about it, I am probably one out of the few that goes to church where I work and not to be against anyone but that is sad in a way. We need more Christian models out there for the children. We don't need to worry about how much we are getting paid and way. We just need to love on those children all that we can.
            That is why I hate thinking about moving apartments or just making more money because I know deep in my heart that that won't matter in the long one but at the same time I need to make a living to live on and be able to buy my needs. Right now, I am very low are trying to buy what I need much less what I want. That's a whole other blog. I love the place that I work and to be honest they probably found out through my Facebook where I went to church because you know jobs look at them more often then we think.
            It just seems like at this job my faith as to grow because I have had some things said against my beliefs that could be taken in the wrong way if I wasn't too nice or too quite about things. Honestly, this place is the first place that I have felt that way. I mean I love to show and let God's Light shine through me for the children and even the co-workers so I don't want to stop working there especially since I know all of this. Then on the other hand, the question is: how long can I handle it or how long is God willing for me to stay there? I am sticking it out mainly for the children but if I can help someone else while I am helping the children that is always a plus too.
             It is good to know things like these because then you know that how you live really does matter in your workplace. Not very many people get to be just the one or the few. It just makes you what to live your Christian life stronger for Christ.
