Pray For Our Teachers

​Tomorrow at our church we will be celebrating and honoring our teachers. I have always been a "school girl" I loved all my teachers, I loved school and homework and learning. I loved fall and the excitement of school starting. A lot of my friends thought I was crazy. I wanted to BE a teacher and pass that love on to other children. God had different plans for my life and although I never taught at a school, He has allowed me to teach the children at our church through the years and it has been such a blessing. Tomorrow's special day has had me thinking a great deal about our teachers. They are such an influence on our children. They are with our children for 30+ hours a week and we are essentially counting on them to "raise" our kids during that time. That is huge! I have a challenge for you today. Have you prayed for your child's teacher? Have you told them how thankful you are for the time and love they pour into your child? They need our prayers and they deserve our thanks. They have a heavy load on their shoulders and knowing that you care, that you are praying for them and that you are thankful would mean the world to them. Whether you are a grandparent, a parent or a student, remember to pray for your teachers every day. It will make a huge difference in their life, your child's life and even your own. Thank you SO MUCH teachers, for ALL you do! We love you!!!
