So the the school-day was a bit more difficult today; we have our good days and bad days. Today happened to be one of the latter, especially at the end of the day. But one of the kids said something that really just back-handed me. In that totally awesome way.
I was walking back to the classroom after having chased some kids down to give them some forms I had forgotten to send home with them, when I hear "Mr. Chris!" called from across the street. I look and see one of my students and wave. "Have a good day!" I call back.
"You too, Mr. Chris!"
Appreciating her greeting, I turned to continue back to my classroom. Then I heard another call a couple of seconds later.
"Mr. Chris!"
"Yes?"
"I'll pray for you tonight!"
Chills went up my spine.
"I pray for all of you every night. Thank you!"
I turned back to my classroom with a new energy welling up inside of me. God looks out for us from the most inconceivable angles, and I cannot express how much that little statement meant to me. After all, it's good to know somebody is praying for you because, in reality, we all need it.
