Today is my day to go to an area school and be a mentor for an hour. My little guy's name is Justin and he is in the third grade. This is out third week of being together. Last week he told me he liked me and I was nice. So today started out great he agreed to all the paper work I picked out. We played a game of Old Maid and he won. And then he was done, wouldn't do anything else, wouldn't obey just totally shut down. His brother went and got the teacher who told me this is normal behavior and would talk to the principal about him no longer being in the program.
As I drove back to work I pondered in my mind what happened, I didn't do anything, I didn't punish him, or yell at him why would he suddenly just push me away? Do I take it personal or is this just him?
Then I thought back to my life when I pushed God away, not intentially but still I turned him away. ( I came across this blog.. I never published it.) I thought it needed to be published any way. Perhaps whoever reads this will think back of a time in their life when they chose to shut down and not let God in. Or maybe you just don't want to let people in. Why is that? I encourage you to take the time and seek HIM. He is so faithful!!
