I woke up with a little bit dizzy head and stuffed nose this morning. That made me alert that my voice could be lost anytime due to the sore and flu, yet I realize that still my students are there to wait the lesson and craving for the new things they need to learn. Somehow I got a sense that today will be rather a tough day.
And yes, you know sometimes these cute students could turn into unruly mob. That happened in one of the classes today. "This is the time", I said in my heart while the deeper part of me imploring help from the Lord, asking for such an urgent wisdom to decide what to do to set a really firm boundary they should not have crossed.
For a moment the class was very quiet. In the past, I found that this was the most complicated thing of being a teacher: to redirect the students when they try to cross into the zone which is just not right. How great is the feeling of serenity while I was telling them even in such firm pose the truth that they have to know and learn. Even my heart starts to thanking the Lord for such courage to bring the students back on track for the rest of the session, even so smoothly and peacefully. It is His power and mercy which guard and guide me in every minute and moment of my life. Lord, bless my beloved the students. Guide them O Lord into the knowledge and love of Your kingdom. Help them to grow such desire to please You and into all goodness that You prepare for them. Amen.
Still in the midst of raging storm
