Why I Do What I Do

Blogging has been pretty sporadic the past couple of weeks because I’ve been back at school since July 14th.  We’ve spent the past three weeks preparing for our new teachers to come tomorrow, our returning teachers to come Monday, and all of our students to be on campus August 11th.  I won’t promise that the blogging will be any more regular this week or next, but I promise I love my job and I have no doubt that this is exactly what God has called me to do at this point in my life…and I hope I get to do it for a really long time!

I ran across this quote from Daniel Webster today and it pretty much sums up why I do what I do.  Thank you God for an opportunity to invest in the lives of students everyday!!

“If we work upon marble, it will perish; if we work upon brass, time will efface it; if we rear temples, they will crumble into dust; but if we work upon immortal minds and instill into them just principles, we are then engraving that upon tablets which no time will efface, but will brighten and brighten to all eternity.”

– Daniel Webster
