Hi Ariel82! Will pray for you but I just wanted to say Jesus is Lord! That is all....

Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life
-Matthew 6:25-27

8 “Look, I go forward, but He is not there,
And backward, but I cannot perceive Him;
9 When He works on the left hand, I cannot behold Him;
When He turns to the right hand, I cannot see Him.
10 But He knows the way that I take;
When He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold.
Job 23:8-10 NKJV

Lord,

I pray for Ariel in Jesus name. Trials and testing means there is gold. Please guide her through her present troubles so that she can have victory. Father, you see into her heart and know how this experience can turn into good. Holy Spirit come. Bring my sister comfort for you are the Comforter. Touch her so that he soul may be soothed. Not even trial and tribulations can separate her from you amazing love. She is the prize. It is amazing how faithful you are. I praise and honor you Lord because you are worthy. Rest upon the shoulders of my sister Lord. I pray in Jesus name, Amen.

Psalm 34 (NIV)
I will extol the Lord at all times;his praise will always be on my lips.

I will glory in the Lord;

let the afflicted hear and rejoice.
Glorify the Lord with me;

let us exalt his name together.
I sought the Lord, and he answered me;

he delivered me from all my fears.
Those who look to him are radiant;

their faces are never covered with shame.
This poor man called, and the Lord heard him;

he saved him out of all his troubles.
The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him,

and he delivers them.

Taste and see that the Lord is good;

blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.
Fear the Lord, you his holy people,

for those who fear him lack nothing.
The lions may grow weak and hungry,

but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.
Come, my children, listen to me;

I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
Whoever of you loves life

and desires to see many good days,
keep your tongue from evil

and your lips from telling lies.
Turn from evil and do good;

seek peace and pursue it.

The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,

and his ears are attentive to their cry;
but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil,

to blot out their name from the earth.

The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them;

he delivers them from all their troubles.
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted

and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

The righteous person may have many troubles,

but the Lord delivers him from them all;
he protects all his bones,

not one of them will be broken.

hoping that's a encouraging word. <3
for what it's worth, I was thanking the Lord just yesterday for your " verse by verse" thread.
i love you, Ariel. I thank God for your presence here at CC.

praying for you this night.

Hugs Ariel, no need to say, God Our Father knows all you need.
Praying for you in Jesus's name for all you hold in your heart.

Psalm 23 is always my fave when needing God's peace. :)

God bless

Thank you all for your prayers. Today went a lot better and even when it didn't go at plan.

I could feel God's peace and love help me through it so that at the end of the day I can look back and not be ashamed of my actions but continue to pray that God touch the hearts and minds of my students and all their teachers.

I know there are more forces and factors in their lives then what I see but I pray that my presence in their lives will shine God's light and love so that they may seek Him and His glory.

The world seeks so often to tear apart and down people, but with God's help maybe we can build up and help heal hearts and souls beaten down by others around them and prevent them from ripping apart others in their pain.

I have found we as teachers don't just teach a subject, we teach students what it means to be human and walk in the ways of the Lord, even if we can't say it out loud.

Again thank you all for your prayers. if you'll add a few for the students I teach and all those other troubled youths, it would be wonderful.

God bless and keep you all.

I love the scripture verses, I'm going to print them out and put them somewhere in my classroom to remind me that its more than just grades and test scores.

WOE for you!
I have a WOE for you! :) aha don't worry I just meant ... word of encouragement.

You know what?
Time is running out and people need to get ready for the last of their eternal choice. Please, focus on one thing in every area of you life - Jesus, the center of your life. You can try and do anything to walk forward but if you've no intimacy with the Lord, everything else is in vain. Just work on your relationship with Jesus. There are levels. Some are very close to jesus and some are not. Those who are very close, in love with the Lord and intimate are his brides and will be raptured soon. The left are to be left here on earth for a certain time before Judgement comes yet some of them will be saved because there'll be many people who call upon the name of the Lord then. Please, focus on your relationship with the Lord. Seek his face yeah, his face. Being face to face with him, in the spirit is very important. Even David said, I see the Lord always before me. Jesus said that he will come and manifest himself to those who keep his commandments and obey to his word. Do you think there is any other greater law than intimacy with the Lord? or I mean, loving the Lord with all your mind, heart, strength, soul, literally giving up everything to follow him and repenting. Have you done that? We need to repent daily.

Spend more time with the Lord so that you can speed up your relationship with him. Set your love on him and every atmosphere for your deliverance, empowerment and renewal of whole life will be available. Seek his face, in the secret place. See, when you spend more time with the Lord, if you stay seeking his face and spend time face to face with him, his light will shine from your face when you go out and you'll be more productive in your spiritual life. It's all about Love, intimacy and relationship. The more you spend time being hungry, thirsty, repenting and mourning...seeking his face in tears, wow you'll achieve something and that is - what you've ever wanted, the Kingdom of God and a good position in there. Start to have a relationship with the Lord so that you'll soon start walking even as Jesus walked. You can be like Jesus. - The bible says, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. -- Seek also his appearance and visitations. Don't ever give up for a single appearance changes life forever.

Shalom

Ariel, sorry I missed this earlier. I will keep you in prayer over the next while. I was a teacher, too and I know what a fine line you walk in trying to be a godly person and model for the students and the other teachers.

God bless you for your ministry to the students!
