Making Allowances

Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other's faults because of your love.

Ephesians 4:2, NLT
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once again, Air1 comes through with the very verse I need today. I was a little snarky yesterday and was NOT making allowance for someone's faults and wasn't showing much patience, love, or humility. Gotta work on this. Thank you, Lord, for your gentle and loving reminders!!

Dealing with Discouragement

Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again - my Savior and my God!

Psalm 42:11, NLT
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Air1 comes through again...I wouldn't say my heart is sad but there are definitely some discouraging things going on at work. Why do I think I have to bear that burden alone? I don't! I will put my hope in God. :-)

Pondering

How amazing are the deeds of the Lord! All who delight in him should ponder them.

Psalm 111:2, NLT
(from Air1 Verse of the Day)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I need to do more pondering in my life. I used to be better at that. Time to go back to my old ways and then get even better.

Valentine's Day Love at Work

True love exists in business. It's when employee and employer are amazingly grateful to have each other. We should all have true love at work.

~Simon Sinek

 This was Beth E.'s "notes to inspire" email for the day on Valentine's Day. She sent it to the "Dream Team" because we do have true love at work.

Dream purposefully

Always remember to fall asleep with a dream and wake up with a purpose.

Reflect the Integrity and Seriousness of Your Teaching

And you yourself must be an example to them by doing good works of every kind. Let everything you do reflect the integrity and seriousness of your teaching.

Titus 2:7, NLT

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Air1 does it again. I read my student evaluations from last semester today and this was my verse of the day. Between my teaching and being division chair, this is an excellent verse to hang on to and remember. Thank you, God!

Faith

I am praying to you because I know you will answer, O God. Bend down and listen as I pray.

Psalm 17:6, NLT

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What a great way to start the new year! Thanks, Air1 for this posting on 12/31/13.
