I want everyone who reads this blog to stop right now and think of how much you have to be thankful for! Too many times in life we try to focus on the bad things and we overlook the good. With that said I want to say thank you for all the opportunities I have been afforded in my life. I would love to be a head coach right now, but maybe God is telling me he has something better planned or maybe he is telling me that I may not be ready either way I am thankful that I still have the opportunity to coach and to make and an impact of kid's lives everyday. So as you read this I want you to think about all that you have to be thankful for before you complain! Think about also that without the trials and tribulation there would be no blessing! You have to go through the valley before you reach the mountain top!

Patience
I think the Lord is trying to teach me a valuable lesson right now concerning patience. And like many people who are learning a lesson I am struggling with this one.
Everyone knows me knows I want to be a head football coach and they also know I want to be one like yesterday, but it's been a struggle with this whole process. The thing holding me back is my youth and lack of experience, now I know I am able and capable to do a great job but schools just don't see that yet, so I have to pay my dues and be patient. i think my youth will help me as a coach because a lot of these issues the high school kids are dealing with I can relate to because I was in their position not that long ago.
I also was hoping to find a job close to Indy so I can move home and be close to my family and my friends. My mom recently has found a new boyfriend who makes her so happy and I am so thankful for that, but I know soon she will be moving home (Tennessee) which I can't blame her, but I was hoping to get home to be closer to her and her new bf so I can spend good time with them before they move. Now the only issue with this is, if I move home I will have to find a new job, and then a new job that will allow me to coach, I could work at a school but since I don't have my teaching license I would just be an hourly employee and I wouldn't get paid when we are not in school (Summer vacation, Christmas, snow days etc) So I think the best thing for me is to stay at my job (which is a good job) and try to coach around here in Lafayette.
Overall i think God is telling me I need to be patient either because I am destined for so much more or that I am just not quite ready for the blessing he has in store for me. Either way I will stay faithful! I know that no matter what my girlfriend supports me! My family has my back! and my FRIENDS will ALWAYS be there for me regardless!!
