a packed house

"And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds." Hebrews 10:24

This week all the educators in our building found themselves with a packed schoolhouse... and i'm not referring to our students.  A local business gifted all with a box filled with a variety of teaching essentials.  Smiles and even giggles flowed from every doorway of our school over the unexpected care package.  It was a sweet reminder of how acts of kindness create goodwill, inspiration and pure JOY. 

Through my years at school, i've been the recipient of many random acts of kindness.  Whether a handmade card, tasty treat, helping hand, sincere "thank you", cute pen, hug, big smile or a packed schoolhouse... whether from family, a student, parent, coworker, friend or complete stranger... each act contains the power to spur us on in our endeavors and keep the faith. Thank you, DG, and the countless others who support us in loving and educating our most valuable gems... our children.

 

Father, thank you for the hands and hearts of those who surround us and lift us up with gratitude.  May i not neglect to pass on this gift of active thanks to the many who serve me.  It's what you created us to do.

we are loved and chosen by God,

may we live, love and do like we believe it,
