          “A TEACHERS SADNESS”

 

     “I was sad last Sunday morning at class time, I certainly hadn’t planned on being sad,

but there I was with tears in my eyes. Let me tell you why.” 

It wasn’t because I hadn’t prepared, because I had. I prepared a whole week for the lesson. I read the lesson in the Bible. I looked at maps too. Then I made an outline of the main points and had it well organized. I spent hours looking for the right materials to use. I spend one whole night putting it all together.

     “I wanted to be sure the children could all get finished during the class hour, and I knew they couldn’t, so I spent some more time drawing, cutting, and pasting until everything was perfect.”

     “Then when all the work was done, I got down on my knees and prayed for your child and others like him. I didn’t just think of that lesson, but the impact it might make on him for years to come.”

     I was tired when I finished, but it was ready. Finally, at long last, it was Sunday morning – class time. The room was shining, and I was there early.”

     “Only one thing was wrong that day. YOUR CHILD DIDN’T COME!!!!!”

     “And that’s why I was sad. So, now that I’ve told you my story. I hope you are sad, too.” Unknown Author
