In thinking about humility, we have a former student of Mason’s and secretary of the PNEU, R.A. Pennethorne, giving us her reflection on the posture for teachers. It fits perfectly with the teachers’ motto – “For the Children’s Sake.” Here’s the full quote:
“Teaching
was to be a mission carrying the breath of life to God’s children…-not looking
for results or rewards or for the praise of man but praying for our children
that they might increase even as we decrease.”
Truly,
Nancy
P.S. – photo cred to Katie!
Nancy, after listening to our LEL class I searched your site for this quote. For me it is a step of faith…we can trust Him for our children's education can't we?! How humbling to see my desperate need of the Holy Spirits help in this season of leading my childrens education. I pray He will continue to work in my heart that I may teach and live out this mission of "carrying the breath of life to Gods children." Thank You Nancy, may He continue to use you in the lives of others. Jennifer
