Everyday I have the opportunity to make or break the people I come in contact with. If my actions and motives are selfish, I guarantee I will probably break the person I come in contact with.
As a teacher, my attitude towards life will be reflected in my actions directed at my students. Therefore, I must surrender my will to the Lord daily and set aside those things I wish to accomplish in my own personal agenda, be it with friends, family, relationships, or future aspirations.
It is difficult for the human mind to only focus on present occurring events. Our minds rush to focusing on our own personal future. It is in those instances I am learning to be careful, because I begin to worry about or imagine things I should not be trying to take control of.
Christ calls us to live life to its fullest and to cast all of our anxieties upon Him. Failure to do so results in lack of maturity and faith.
As a friend, I must learn to meet the needs of those I care for. Sometimes the best way to let my friend know that I love and care for them is to be silent and wait patiently.
"You simply have to be yourself -at any age -as God made you, available to Him so that He can work in and through you to bring about His kingdom and His glory." - Luci Swindoll
I am therefore, learning to be always transparent. Navigating through life is a journey, but may I never forget that it is first and foremost a blessing. I have the opportunity to count each day as a privilege and make the most of it. The interactions and conversations I have with others are a gift. Each person has blessed me in their own unique way.
Learn to be transparent; never afraid to be yourself; the person God created you to be.
May you feel loved and appreciated today.
