A Teacher's Prayer

"Enable me to teach with wisdom, for I help to shape the mind.
Equip me to teach with truth, for I help to shape the conscience.
Encourage me to teach with vision, for I help to shape the future.
Empower me to teach with love, for I help to shape the world."

I had a hard day at work today. I wouldn't even know where to begin if I were to go into detail. I was having such a great week, and then today with all of its turmoil came and tried to rob my joy. As Anne of Green Gables would say, "I'm having a Jonah day." No, I'm not running from God, but it sure feels like I was swallowed by a whale. Good thing it's Friday.
