Called to be... trusting

Video transcript

My day-to-day job is a teacher, and I know that is very much my calling. And it’s a real joy and privilege to serve in the primary school setting. When I’m not at school, I’m serving at my local Salvation Army church as a local officer at Gateshead Salvation Army. 

It so often feels like every day is different; I don’t always know from day to day what adventures and what challenges I will face. There are days when the challenges feel overwhelming and too big for me to manage. I’m confident, though, that whatever situations I find myself in, I can trust that my God is with me, both in the calm and through the storms. When situations feel daunting and when fear creeps in, I know that Jesus holds my hand and that he’s with me. I often find myself walking alongside families and communities with situations that can seem impossible and sometimes overwhelming. So I find myself simply trusting that God is with me in the everyday. 

He’s with me in the day-to-day and in every storm, equipping me with wisdom and knowledge, grace, understanding and courage for every task. I can trust and know his calming voice and his presence with me every step along the way.
