Clay in the Hands

There is a people group who get overlooked often. In fact, for the most part, I think they are taken for granted – as if a part of the scenery. They are expected to do their jobs and as long as they do, no one really notices.

But every day of their careers, they get up, go and face terrifying people who rarely show any appreciation for them. They do this with a smile all in hopes of shaping those rarely grateful, terrifying people’s lives.

This under-served people group is made up of our teachers and school administrators.

Today, our church is stepping out to show some appreciation for this group. We are moving out of our comfort zone and into the world. We will be blessing the teachers and staff at a local elementary school with lunch. There is no agenda. We don’t want anything out of our efforts. We simply want those on the front lines to know they are loved and appreciated and to offer to come along side them in any way we can bring help and encouragement.

Make sure to pray for our schools today and for those who pour their lives into the lives of littles all over our communities.  And if you have kids in school, make sure your children’s teachers know you care about them.

Be a blessing today.
