Food for thought....
I have been thinking bout a friend of mine at church. She shared about this year being her first year of teaching and how teachers came in to see her class list. She shared that out of at least 6-7 teachers there was only one teacher that had something encouraging to say about her students. She explained how she felt that each year ought to be a slate clean for students. Which I loved to hear!! But then she shared something that I had thought of myself but was uneasy to do this due to the church/state "rules". She shared that she was going up to the school the day before school starts ( which was Sunday) and anoint the room and the chairs and pray over her class. I loved hearing that!! I was so excited!! Then I thought what if more teachers that are believers did that. Think about the impact that could happen in the class when you have God as the center of it all. This was shared at church and the pastor was too very impressed. He offered a bottle of anointing oil for any teacher that wanted to do this too.
So this is the food for thought... What if every teacher that is a believer did this? Can you imagine the outcome that would happen? How this would help the students in the class for learning and test results. Wow!!
My challenge to you is that even if you don't have that anointing oil that you too can pray over students. You never know what is going on in their lives and they too bring so many issues and pain with them. I pray that more people would have the boldness to do what this woman has done. I pray this for myself too.
Think about it.... hmmmmmmmmmm
