What God is teaching me..

The following is an exerpt from my journal - it is written with the exact same emphasis as I wrote in longhand - with no editing:
"Remember how I wanted to learn how to love people? Hmmm...it's funny but I just realized that that goal - in and of itself - is not enough. I realize that when I teach I get angry with the kids because they are not allowing me to help them. Their behaviour is getting in the way of my goal! [to love them] But is it not the same with me and God? - My behaviour gets in the way of His goals - I don't let Him do what He needs with me! The point is that He uses these moments to aid in reaching His goals. And so I must do with my students!! This is the throws of counselling right here - and I have been most unfaithful in the fulfillment of my duties to see that I must see all these oppurtunities as oppurtunities for ministry..."
...this is just a small glimpse of the work God is doing in my life
