Music Daze

For as long as I remember, I have always loved music! I remember singing all the time, whether at home, at church, in the car, or wherever! The Lord has recently opened a new door for me at my school.
I always hoped that I would be able to teach elementary school (just like my mom and grandmother). When I began teaching, I also began to have a desire to teach music. Music is such a wonderful way to worship the Lord, and I am so thankful for the training that I had throughout high school and college. Last week, I was talking to my principal about offering music lessons at my school. I was so happy when she gave me the okay! I sent home flyers to the students. I wasn't sure what to expect. I figured if no one contacted me, I could always offer lessons for the next year. It never hurts to ask. I have been praying that the Lord would at least provide a  couple of students for me; however, I realized that whatever His will for this new adventure would be, it would be the best thing for me. This will be my first time teaching music lessons, so although I wanted a ton of students, I knew that just a couple would be best for me, as I'm getting started. I was so happy when I received an e-mail from one of my parents. I am going to have the privilege of teaching her two students voice and piano! I was so excited about this opportunity! I began lessons the first week of October. The Lord has blessed me with 5 voice students and 2 piano students! Please pray with me as I begin this new opportunity. I am so excited, but definitely a little nervous. Can't wait to see what this new adventure has in store!!
