Classical Conversations
For Week 7
Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:18.
I pray this over you this week. It is not easy to be thankful when you are going through difficult circumstances. I am learning that it makes all the difference in how you are going to get through the circumstance. The circumstance may not go away but your heart will change as you learn to thank God. You will grow closer to God as you learn to praise Him through your storm. He loves you and he is a good, good father.
Don't forget your Tin Whistles! We are starting our six weeks of Music Theory. It's going to be fun! We will also be exploring the external anatomy of crayfish this week. The kids are going to love it.
