A Need For Silence

1744) For many years, I was not a morning person, but that changed when we adopted our first dog. Through the years, I’ve had 4-legged alarm clocks. For some reason, my dogs have decided if they’re up, we all need to be up. Therefore, I am now a morning person. I like early morning because

What Do I Do?

1743) When I’ve had student teachers in the past, one area that an inexperienced teacher struggles with is given precise and clear directions to their young scholars. I’ve seen it happen in my own classroom. If my directions to my students are not clear or are too complicated, the assignment, or whatever activity I’m trying

Just a Little While Longer

1742) There are a few things that I struggle with spiritually. One of them is the fact that in this life, things are difficult–sometimes even evil. When I see or experience things that fit in this category, it’s awful easy to cross my arms and have a chat with God about them in an accusatory

Ticks, Serpents and Scorpions

1741) It’s always interesting when the Christmas season approaches at a school. My young scholars get so excited, bursting to tell me what they’ve asked for and then, after the holiday, they share what they received. What would my students think if they asked for a specific video game and their parents gave them a

If You Love Me

1740) All the choices we make reflect the things we value. If we choose to go on a vacation to a warm location, we may value an easy-going atmosphere. If we choose to support specific political ideology, it’s typically because the person’s priorities and/or values reflect ours. Of all the choices we make in life,

The Frustration of Prayer

1739) I know how this may sound, but there are times I find prayer very frustrating. In these times, it is like I am in an interrogation room with a window in which God can see me from the other room, but I cannot see him. It frustrates me because I long to see him,

Pushing Through the Dip

In 2017, I started seriously pursuing writing as a profession. I enrolled in a marketing class taught by Seth Godin. I learned so much from this course, which also introduced me to one of Seth’s books, The Dip. In this book, Seth describes any job worth having requires commitment and work. If it didn’t, everyone

A Quiet Secret

1737) I have learned through the years that the best way to get the attention of my young scholars is to talk quietly. This usually will get the kids’ attention much quicker than if I yelled. This is a truth that is useful outside the classroom, too. Proverbs 15:1 tells us that answering someone (or

Wait a Minute!

1736) Waiting is difficult for children. For them, Christmas is something that is far, far in the distance, but adults know how quickly it comes each year. But waiting isn’t just difficult for kids, it can be for adults, too. Psalm 27:14 is one of many verses that admonishes us to wait on the Lord.

Personalized

1735) Every year, as Mother’s Day approaches, I remind my young scholars of the coming day. Many times, some of them say they have no money (or not enough) to get something nice for their moms. When I hear this, I spend a few moments letting them know their mom would love something they made
