Our Bible lesson yesterday was on not wanting what other people have.
I had my students go around the room and name something they wanted really bad.
Of course they all named
Playstation 4
X-Box
Cars
Dirt Bikes.
Then I had them think about something other than an object they wanted.
They named
to be a Marine
to be famous
to be happy
etc. etc. etc.
I shared with the class that something I want is to travel around the world. I talked about wanting to see other countries and explore different lands. I even shared that I'm jealous of people who have already done this.
One of my students raised his hands and said, "But if you traveled around the world you wouldn't get to be our teacher and God wants you to be our teacher."
It completely warmed my heart.
What better confirmation could I ask for than that?
