Wonderful Maker - Jeremy Camp version

You spread out the skies over empty space
Said "let there be light"
Into a dark and formless world Your light
was born

You spread out Your arms over empty hearts
Said "let there be light"
Into a dark and hopeless world Your Son
was born

You made the world and saw that it was good
You sent Your only Son for You are good

What a wonderful Maker
What a wonderful Savior
How majestic Your whispers
And how humble Your love
With a strength like no other
And the heart of a Father
How majestic Your whispers
What a wonderful God

No eye has fully seen, how beautiful the cross
And we have only heard
The faintest whispers of how great You are

For all my students these past two years...

Wherever We Go (Sing to the song Bubbly by Colbie)

You’ve been my student for a year now
You’ve got me feelin’ kinda sad now
And even though this is our last day
But I know that we’ll all be okay

It’s time to say bye
And I don’t want to cry
Wherever we go we always know
That changes are hard
We’ll just have to send cards
And keep in touch
Wherever we go

You all make fun of the words I say
We still don’t know who stepped on “J”. 
There were days you were good and bad 
But you know I never get really mad

It’s time to say bye
And I don’t want to cry
Wherever we go we always know
That changes are hard
We’ll just have to send cards
And keep in touch
Wherever we go

You wish that I would stay
That I wouldn’t go away..
I just, mmm

It’s time to say bye
And I don’t want to cry
Wherever we go, we always know
That changes are hard
We’ll just have to send card
And keep in touch
Wherever we go

Da Da Da Da Da Da Da...
Bum Bum Ba La do do do mm...

I've been singing for awhile now
You know I’m kinda getting tired now
I hope this song has made you smile
My time at FHS is all worthwhile

Wherever I’ll go
I will let you guys know
I now have my space
To see your face
Know that I miss you
And I will always love you
No matter what

Wherever, wherever, where ever I go
Wherever, wherever, where ever we go

It's during times that I feel most alone in the world, it's when Jesus brings me back to His love.  Even though I've tried my best today, I still get reprimanded or still feel like a failure at work, I am reminded by that I have served Him well for today.  Then, I hope at least He's pleased with me and give me a big hug.  I know that it's not by works that He loves me. 

I walked down 50th street to 8th ave to take the train, and it seemed like time has slowed down around me.  I know this is not over, even though I have chose to stop teaching this coming year.  The suffering will not end as long as I'm here on earth because we would go through what Christ has gone through.  Then once again I was reminded that what really matters are the things that counts for eternity.  Today was one of those days where I just wished the D train would come right away especially the platform is unbearably hot.  I stood there waiting for 30 minutes.  My backpack seemed like it gained 10 more pounds, and I was dripping with sweat.  I tried to keep my cool, not lose patience, and hope the train will come in the next minute... maybe the next one, next one..... ok maybe 3 more minutes....    Then it finally came after I don't know seemed like an eternity.  When my skin encountered the sweet coolness of the AC in the train, every one of my pores was singing songs.... I don't know how Jesus could walk in the desert 40 days without food and water. AND He was tempted..... amazing.


I thank God that He has broke me down like today.  I truly feels when Paul said "For when I am weak, then am I strong."  God's strength in me will never fails.  I will never go thirsty or hungry because of His truth, His way and His Holy words.  He will not break His promises to me as long as I stayed faithful to Him.  I thank Him for all the hardships these two years.  The four journals I have kept these two years are filled with answered prayers, perseverance, praises, challenges, struggles, lessons, songs, and tiny doodles.  They are my psalms....my life treasures. 

I am torn and sad to tell my students I am leaving FHS this week.  As I walk through the empty hallway all by myself this evening, I see "ghost" of my students saying "Carmen! Good morning!".   I see them waving bye, I see the usual students running passed me, group of mean girl gossping, couples lingering, staff rushing here and there.  There's a lot of things I do miss of being a teacher, most of all I miss my relationships with each of my students the most.  Each one of my interaction with them has been special and unforgettable despite good or bad.  They are my teachers.   I am counting down the days.  My feelings are blended with relief, excitement, confusion, unsettledness and sadness.  I pray that God will help me have a good closure at school with my students and staff...... I am still working on putting faith in Him that He'll show me what I will I be doing this year when I make some smart planning and decisions.  Please pray for me...

More reflection later..again, i apologize for the incoherency and the bad grammars
