But thanks be to God who gives us the victory through our LORD Jesus Christ. 1 Cor. 15:57
Pastor's Corner
The sun came out yesterday for a little while, and it reminded me that the heaviness and interruption we’re experiencing will eventually pass. I’m thankful for a God who is with us, on the mountain tops and in the valleys! I’m thankful for the Spirit that is so gracious and active - prompting, preventing, encouraging, revealing, inspiring - amazing! What are you thankful for?
Anyone who’s spent time in education knows that the single biggest difference-maker in a child’s learning journey is parental involvement. With healthy parental support and encouragement, students almost always thrive. My favorite story related to this is about a super poor mother whose sons were not doing well in school. She prayed for God’s guidance. She had watched the habits of the wealthy people she worked for, and came up with a plan: the boys would pick two books from the library each week, and turn in a book report on each one. Then she would quiz them on the details. TV time was severely limited. In a little over a year, the boys went from last in their classes to first. The younger one went on to become a highly respected pediatric neurosurgeon. Oh, and the mother… she couldn’t read!
Why am I telling this story? Many of us are “getting to” help with our children’s education during this time - let’s make the most of it! Instead of being a total pain, it can be a turning point!
Psalm 18:1 - "I love you, O Lord, my strength."
We Win!!
