September 12, 2001.

Take me back to that day.

While it was an overwhelmingly heavy day full of grief, despair, and uncertainty, I’ve never felt more united with my brothers and sisters across the country. We mourned together. We cried together. We held hands, bowed heads...we prayed.

Church pews were filled.
Dinner tables were surrounded.
People listened.
Strangers hugged.
We were the rainbow in the middle of the storm.

We were united.

But we’ve since forgotten the latter part of the statement. The part that comes after the pause.

“Divided we fall.”

And we’ve fallen so far away from where we were on 9.12.01. So very, very far.

Constant fighting. And anger. And being mad just to be mad. It’s like a cancer we can’t cure and it’s eating away at the heart of humanity.

I don’t ever want a repeat of the events on 9.11, but I long for the unity we all felt on September 12th.

Take me back.

I’m looking at you, dear teacher 👀Yes, you. J

I’m looking at you, dear teacher 👀Yes, you. Just in case you haven’t heard it today, you’re a superhero. You really are. In so, SO many ways.

Superheroes have bad days. Terrible, rotten, no good days ⛈The kind that leave your cheeks tear stained and your heart sullen. The kind of bad days that have you climbing into bed while the sun is still shining.

You’re a teacher in 2020 and you’ve earned your bad days. Shoo...I’d even say you’re entitled to them.

So cry all the tears 😭Eat all the cookies 🍪 Go to bed early 🛌 Use all the colorful language when you’re venting to your spouse or friend(s)🤬...

BUT...

....Whatever you do...DON’T doubt for a second that you’re an incredible teacher. The actual best. Don’t compare. Don’t second guess. Don’t think you aren’t doing the best you can (and then some). Because honestly dear teacher, YOU ARE AMAZING 🙌🏼♥️

You really are a superhero, and even superheroes have bad days.

Me in a nutshell. I couldn’t be more in love!😍. @sole_candy_214

If you know me, you know I wholeheartedly believe

If you know me, you know I wholeheartedly believe in the power of prayer. Starting a new prayer journey with this incredible prayer journal I just got from @anointed.la. and I’m committing to intentionally pray for others as often and as fervently as I can. I’m anxious to see how God works in their lives and how He answers their prayers ♥️. And if there’s a specific way I can pray for you, I’d be honored to add you to my journal and pray for you, too.
“Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.” - Jeremiah 29:12

This verse = GOALS🙌🏼 This journaling popped

This verse = GOALS🙌🏼

This journaling popped up in my memories today. It resonates with me entirely different today than it did when I studied it the first time in 2016.

As I sit back and reflect on this verse in the present, I’m reminded of John 13.35…”By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another”.

If God is slow to anger & steadfast in His love for us, shouldn’t I strive for the same? If people are to come to know the character of Christ through His disciples, what does my attitude/reaction/love/joy/peace/patience/self-control/gentleness/kindness do for my witness? What do my words & actions say about Him?

I pray that I would live my life in a way that reflects His character…His goodness & His incredible love; His undeserved grace & compassion. I don’t want to live my life offended or ready to prove anyone wrong for the sake of being right. I don’t want to cancel someone for thinking differently than me even when I feel it’s deserved. I don’t want to judge what I don’t understand. I don’t want my opinions to outweigh an opportunity to respond with kindness or my feelings to get in the way of extending grace…even when it’s the LAST thing I want to do. I don’t want to live mad…I just want to love BIG.

Sometimes I think we overcomplicate the gospel & the simplicity of His greatest command….to love one another as He has loved us. We put so many unnecessary qualifiers on what makes people worthy of receiving love or even basic human decency. As @bobgoff would say, “love everybody, always”. It’s not easy. And sometimes people frustrate the Jesus right out of me. But when God is finished writing the final chapter in my story, I hope the last thing He pens in my book of life reads, “well done, good & faithful servant”.
