The Book Of John John 9:1-5

for educators
As He passed by, he saw a man blind from birth. And His disciples asked Him, “Rabbi, who sinned,
this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” Jesus answered, “It was not that this man sinned,
or His parents, but that the works of God might be displayed in him. We must work the works of Him
Who sent Me while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work. As long as I am in the world, I
am the light of the world.”

There’s a Word for that! Guard

Do you think about guarding your mind? Ask God for the help to be diligent about what comes into
6

your mind for it is a promise that He will grace you with a peace that surpasses all understanding.

Philippians 4:7 - And the peace of God which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts
and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Dear Heavenly Father,

What a gracious God You are, Father. Thank
You Lord for Your constant care. Lord, we
ask for a double-portion of Your peace so
that our minds and hearts will be guarded
Y

in Christ Jesus. Teach us Lord to think like

Jesus, to interact with our students as He
would, to develop relationships with our
colleagues as Jesus would and to be
A

respectful to those in authority over us.

Lord, we hope that the peace You grant us
will be contagious to others and we have
the opportunity to point them to You. We
pray in the peaceful name of Jesus. Amen.
