Reading signs

Good morning, God!  A new day is here, and I get to use it trying to help students to understand a novel, all of the intricacies and details that normally would go right by them--if I do it well.  I would much appreciate your presence there so that I can stay focused in ways that will help them.

As you know already, there's a situation at school that's somewhat ridiculous, and that makes me very frustrated.  It truly makes me wonder if I made a mistake in coming here to teach, as the lack of organization and vision here are truly difficult to deal with.  I don't understand often how people can not do things that they're supposed to do, and then not see any problem with not having done it.  This school, I think, is going to lose several teachers next year, and that's going to mean another difficult year of transition.  And the loss won't necessarily be for good reasons.  Oh, well--I'm trying to look at the signs and decide whether this place is a good fit for me, and whether I'm a good fit for this place.  I know that the way it is, the school and I are not a good fit.  I always look to the ways that it could be, though, if I need to make important decisions.

I'm not asking for a reply this morning, obviously, since I need to live soon.  But I do know that sometimes you can help me to see things more clearly, or with less bias.  And that's what I ask for as the window for my decision comes closer--discernment.  Please help me to see things in different ways, in clear ways, in helpful ways.
