"Miss Mercee, why can't I fly?"
"Miss Mercee, last night I counted to forty twenty and then I went to space where there's no gravtee (gravity) and gave God a hug!"
"Miss Mercee, watch! I can whistle my ABC's like you taught me."
These quotes are few of many that I am BLESSED to hear daily. As a teacher, I have been crowned "Miss Mercee" to those I teach who are mostly sweet, sweet 3 year olds.
Okay, so technically I am a teacher-in-training as a Junior at Family of Faith College and called by God to teach children all over the world about His PERFECT love! Three years ago I decided to get a head start on getting to know children, so I got the job as "teacher" at a daycare. What was I thinking, right???
Well, I was born into this world barely thriving. Barely surviving, for that matter. Now, I could go into the sap story about the several factors that pointed to my certain death, but the victory is in the life.
The LIFE! The Life that God gave me and that He gives everyone and that I want to do everything in my ability to see breathed into every person. Hello, John 10:10!
{I have come that they may have life,
and that they may have it more abundantly.}
That is what I was thinking when I got the rewarding job as a "teacher" at a daycare.
And that is what Jesus was thinking when He forgot about His priesthood and His power and He laid it aside for me.
WHAT a sacrifice! And what a happy story I have been blessed to get the chance to share!
Throughout my rockin' education to be an educator, I have traveled to Lebanon, Mexico, and Israel to minister to and teach orphans, elementary students, and residents at Women&Children Shelters.
Let me tell you... I..LOVE.IT.
I also love, love, love photography, music, traveling, and art!!!
And from now on I will be sharing my ideas, exciting experiences, and thoughts on being a teacher-in-training HERE!
