Luke Warm

The words "luke warm" continue to resonate in my mind.  The other day, my mom told me about a sermon she had heard about being luke warm.  Since then, those words are stuck in my mind.  I have really been doing some thinking on this lately, asking myself the question, "Am I luke warm?"  I believe I am; in a couple of areas in my life.  First of all, I think I have become luke warm in my walk with the Lord.  I want people to see Jesus in me when I make my first impression.  I can't say, without a doubt, that this is the first impression I give on a constant basis here lately.  That, I am going to change!!!

On another note, I think I have become luke warm in my job.  Even though I truly care about all of my students, at the end of many days, here lately, I find I am asking myself, "Okay, what did I REALLY accomplish today, besides getting all of my students seen?"  I think I have spent more time making sure I get all of the scheduled times in, instead of meeting the kiddos needs.  Between ARDs, paperwork, and "getting the times in,"  I think I have slacked on the quality of service I am providing.  I have got to get back to what is really important....making a difference!  Sometimes it is just hard; the juggling act can easily become consuming!
