Piper: “Long for heaven, long for Christ, long for the day when we will sin no more. But trust his promises now. Walk by faith, not by sight.”

[David Geurin @DavidGeurin]

Each person in your school contributes to the culture of your school. School culture is built on the actions and interactions of the people.

You make your school stronger by adding value to others and by making others feel valued.

What you do matters.

I don’t think better test scores necessarily means a better school.

But I’m sure better relationships always makes a better school.

Better relationships create stronger schools and stronger kids.

[C. S. Lewis @CSLewisDaily]

“I would rather be what God chose to make me than the most glorious creature that I could think of; for to have been born in God's thought, and then made by God is the dearest, grandest, and most precious thing in all thinking.”

[David Jeremiah @davidjeremiah]

When we demonstrate Christlike, unconditional love—especially to those who don’t know Jesus personally—we are telling the world to whom we belong. The longer we live with love toward others, the better idea the world will have of who Christ is.

When you do not know what to do next, resist the impulse to take things into your own hands, and lift your hands instead to God.

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

I appreciate empathetic educators. Their job is more stressful… because they feel the pain and struggles that their students endure. But their job is infinitely more rewarding… because they’re the ones who truly touch the lives of their students.

If we seek revenge after someone wrongs us, we show our unbelief in God’s promises. Vengeance belongs to him. He will right all wrongs.

[David Jeremiah @davidjeremiah]

Anger can remain in our hearts like shackles until we choose to forgive. When we forgive, we move from frustration to joy.

[David Geurin @DavidGeurin]

Our greatest challenge isn’t from the difficulties we face.

Our greatest challenge is responding positively to the difficulties we face.

Some of my greatest learning and growth happened in the most difficult circumstances of my life.

[Desiring God @desiringGod]

It’s through our weaknesses, more than our strengths, that God demonstrates his power. If we will rely on God, our weaknesses will qualify us to glorify him in whatever he calls us to do.

[David Geurin @DavidGeurin]

For some students, school feels like a constant reminder of weaknesses. I had a student recently tell me how stupid she is. It was heartbreaking to hear. Students desperately need to have their strengths recognized. It's not "Are you smart?" It's "How are you smart?"

[Desiring God @desiringGod]

Aim to do your work with excellence, and then give all glory to God for the gifts he’s given you.

[David Jeremiah @davidjeremiah]

The question is not whether we have problems in this life. The question is what we choose to do about those problems.

[Desiring God @desiringGod]

If we do what we want, when we want, we will waste the little time we have. But if we use our time to pursue God and love others, we’ll live the fullest and happiest lives possible.
