As I start another school year, my eleventh at Upland Christian Academy, I am looking forward to all that God has planned for me and for my students. I know that we will be studying great short stories and novels. I know that we will be making connections between those literary works and the Biblical Truths - Creation, God, Mankind, Moral Order, and Purpose. I know that we will be writing short literary analyses and longer essays, using the writing process to hone our skills. I know that we will learn new vocabulary words as well as Greek and Latin roots to build our ever-growing vocabularies. I know that we will work together to complete tasks - and work independently to complete others. In fact, I know what I have planned for me and my students. What I don't know - and what I am looking forward to - is seeing what God has planned.
How is he going to use my plans to grow His kingdom?
On my heart as this year begins is Colossians 1:9-14. May the Holy Spirit fill my students with a desire to live worthy, bear fruit, and grow in the knowledge of God.
