Whew! Monday is over and I can finally be home to blog, relax, and oh wait I can't relax. This is the time i'm suppose to use to work on my lesson plans! Oh well :p Anyways today I was reminded of probably the most important thing any teacher who loves Christ would want to be reminded of. It is certain that everything I do, I should be doing it to bring honor and glory to Christ, but the honest truth is that we get distracted sometimes and carry on with what the world tells us to worry about, and that can be trying to be the best at something. BUT today I was reminded by Ms. Jazzmin (one of our guest teachers to train us) about NOT being a good, great, or amazing teacher but rather a Godly teacher. WOW!... I mean how easy is it to get distracted and aim for a goal to be an amazing teacher and totally throw God in the back? Being a teacher, you may feel obligated to want to take over your class room but honestly we are nothing without the Lord. So...the honest truth is that we cannot do things on our own, so why not let Christ take over your class room?
I came here this summer as an intern with the intent to show Christs love, but as I have been preparing my lesson plans and decorating my room, I think I have forgotten to invite Christ to be present in my class room and with my kids. It is a blessing to be reminded that I need to pray for Christ to be present in my classroom and with my kids. Please continue to pray for me, my fellow interns, and the BCM staff. Pray that we don't forget that God is the very reason why we are here, and that God is needed to be present in our class rooms and with our kids throughout the day. :)
