What goes around, comes around

 

How did I miss this before Christmas?  So glad it’s still up.

     Aren’t second chances the best?  Big or small.  And JC said forgive seven times seventy. That’s a lot of potential do-overs.  Maybe that’s the point of my dream, yesterday and today:  Back to teaching, this time as an elementary classroom teacher with maybe forty little kids and a head full of ideas but no specific lesson plans.  Felt nervous but eager and dismayed by an enthusiastic parent who seemed kindly intent on taking over before I could get off the mark.  Hmmph!  Felt like “Be patient.  It will work out.”

      Lord, we need help from You to develop our patience.  Help us to see our second chances on all levels.  Awaken our awareness of our relationship to You, to each other.  May we extend kindness and generosity as the continuation of Your desire and will for our actions. IJN
