Need Protection?

Safety is not found in the absence of danger, but in the presence of God! (Weekly Wisdom for the Week, 03/15/2010)

"Do your relationships control you, or does Christ control your relationships?


God wants to be the most important thing in your life. Sadly, many Christians let the opinions of other people control their own decisions, altering what they consider to be important.
Proverbs 29:25 says, Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe.


Your relationships with the people you're around could be a snare to you if let them control you. However, if Christ is more important to you than any relationship, then he will control your relationships, guiding you into right, godly ones. Make Christ first place in your heart, and he will control and direct your relationships."

In order to experience God's protection, you must be in God's presence!!!

Frightening Conclusion....

I've come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element [in the classroom]. It's my daily mood that makes the weather. [As a teacher], I possess a tremendous power to make a child's life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration. I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis will be escalated or de-escalated and a child humanized or de-humanized.” - Dr. Haim Ginott.

Matthew 5:16--Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in heaven!! :)
