As we step into a new week and a new semester, I want to encourage you to surrender your plans to God and trust in His guidance. This is a powerful step toward aligning our plans with God’s will. Surrender isn’t about giving up it’s about releasing control and trusting God’s bigger picture. Not just in our classrooms, but in every part of our lives. You’re not teaching alone God is with you every step of the way. Let’s begin this semester surrendered, aligned, and filled with His peace. 🙏🏽 A prayer for you as you head back into the classroom: Heavenly Father, I surrender my plans, worries, and anxieties to You. Guide my steps and align my heart with Your purpose for my classroom and my life. Help me trust Your wisdom and provision, knowing that You work all things together for good. In Jesus Name, Amen. 💌 Share any prayer requests below — I’d love to pray with you. 🙏🏽 Note: Our monthly Pause + Pray Call has been moved to next Sunday. More details coming soon.

We made it to the end of another week! 💜💛 Share a testimony from this week in the comments below. It can be something from work or outside of work big or small. 🎉 Let’s take time to magnify God for what He is doing in our lives and classrooms. Your testimony may be the encouragement someone else needs today. 💜🦋

I want to encourage you to surrender it all to God—your cares, your plans, your classroom, and every concern you’re carrying. Lay it all at His feet and allow Him to help you navigate this season, not in your own strength, but in His strength. Remember, you don’t have to carry this alone. Surrender it all to Him.

Good evening everyone, so you all were standing in agreement with me on a vehicle and I wanted to update you all….I GOT MY CAR AND GOD DID IT!!! I prayed and asked God to send me to the right place. I called one place and they never called me back after running my credit. Well contacted another person and I sat right there until that deal came through. He took care of me and my husband, he made sure we were satisfied and he even called afterwards to make sure we were still pleased. The vehicle I went to get was a 2018 Dodge Durango with high miles on it but I just knew the price was right for me…well the salesman pulled out a 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee and I test drove it and fell in love, we got back and I walked around it 3 times, I prayed over it on the inside and out and God said this is it! After the deal was worked the salesman let me know it had just one owner and lower miles and price was just slightly above the other one I was looking at. I went with basic in mind and God had greater already worked out 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

As you step into this new year and eventually back into the classroom my prayer is that you rest in God’s presence and remember you don’t have to carry this calling alone. God is with you. And you’re not walking this journey by yourself here. Question: Do you choose a word, phrase or theme for the year, or a scripture for the year?
