love

I have been teaching for 2 weeks now and school has been great!  The Lord has been showing me how to manage a classroom of 4 with different levels and ages.  It is so wonderful how much I am to be dependent on the Lord.  At school, we are studying scripture together, learning how the Bible came to us, studying the His story of Rome, along with all other subject.  

On Friday we went on  nature walk around the neighborhood.  All 4 of the kids took a notepad and pencil and took notes on what they noticed outside with their 5 senses.  Well, Esther (the 4 year old) was ready for this assignment.  As soon as we stepped outside she saw the dogs poop and smelt the poop too.  She immediately flipped open that notepad and began drawing the poop.  I couldn't get upset because she was totally following instructions =)  Also, I often find her desk stuffed with books.  She can't put them down-- no teacher can EVER complain about that!

I have such fun students and I love how God has given them the desire to learn and to want to do well in school.  We serve an amazing God who has an amazing plan for each one of us! 

"May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world." Galatians 6:14

"The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love." Galatians 5:6- following Jesus is not hard, He simple wants you to love.  Love the person that is right in front of you because God placed him or her in your path =)

"Whoever sows to please their flesh (sinful nature), from flesh (sinful nature) will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life."  Galatians 6:8
