Some of the people that we interact with every day have moments when
they desperately need a sense of His presence. That's why you're there.
Most of the people that we . . . Hm.
All of the people that we . . .

One of my fears as a teacher is that a student will come into my room
with the need to be encouraged, the need to be told that they are loved,
and I'll think that my English lesson for the day is more important
than that student's spiritual need at that moment. If I happen to come
to your mind during the day, pray that God will give me a sensitivity to
my students' real needs and the understanding that my classroom is His
Kingdom not mine. Pride has a way of messing up one's priorities as
God's servant. He didn't call me to teach in order to meet my needs, to
feed my ego. He needs a servant's heart in my room.
