                          Note to the educator
                          Sometimes	we	pray	for	something	for	a	long	time	and	it	seems	like	God	is	not	listening.		He	is	
Y
                          always	listening	to	us.	He	knows	our	requests	even	before	we	ask,	yet	at	times	it	seems	that	
                          our	prayers	are	unanswered.	Waiting	is	not	a	practice	that	most	of	us	enjoy	and	waiting	
                          patiently	is	seemingly	impossible	at	times.	Yet	as	we	look	back	on	our	lives’	requests,	we	can	
                          see	that	He	is	a	“just	in	time”	God	Who	not	only	listens	to	our	cries	but	inclines	Himself	toward	
                          us.	Hindsight	is	20/20	and	gives	us	the	chance	to	witness	what	God	has	done	in	our	lives.	If	you	
A
                          are	not	already	journaling,	I	highly	recommend	a	small	daily	journal	where	you	record	your	
                          blessings	large	and	small	each	week.	Be	sure	to	date	the	entries	and	look	back	each	school	
                          year.	You	will	be	amazed	at	just	how	attentive	He	has	been	to	the	cries	of	your	heart.

                          Please	pray	for	a	sense	of	gratitude.	
                          Quote for the day
                          	Life	is	10%	what	happens	to	me	and	90%	of	how	I	react	to	it.		Charles	Swindoll
