Tomorrow is another great day to be a teacher!  We have been given an amazing opportunity to shape young lives by handing out knowledge, love, and encouragement.  It is no secret that I have been discouraged lately, but last week, a teacher friend named Becky pulled me aside and said, “You are doing a great job!”  Her words were simple, but I was amazed how much they encouraged me.

So I’m here to pass along the same encouragement to you.  You can do it!  You are a great teacher! You have a classroom full of students because God wants you there and He needs your exact gifts and talents with the exact students who will come into your room.

Tomorrow and every day after, I want you to remember a beautiful passage in Acts 17, “God determined the times and the exact places that we should live. God did this so that we would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. ‘For in him we live and move and have our being.’

God put you where you are so you will reach out to him for wisdom and help.  But more importantly, He put those students in your room so perhaps they would reach out and find God.

So remember, you can do it!  You can do it!  You can do it!!
