The beginning of a new school year prompts me to choose a passage from the Bible to serve as a School Scripture, even though we're not homeschooling any more. Kennady is in her second year of college, and at present quite a bit of that is being done from home. I'm a tutor in our homeschool co-op, so I am still teaching, and I am involved with homeschooling. Like many other years, this Scripture is my prayer, and not just for my daughter, but for all of my grown children and the young people around them, many that I love like my own. As we all face new challenges and difficult decisions in the year ahead, we need God's wisdom and understanding more than ever before. I pray that these young people will always do their best to live out God's will for them, and keep growing in their knowledge of him. I trust that God will give them strength and endurance to live a life worthy of the Lord in every way.
We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives, so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light.~Colossians 1:9-12
With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may bring to fruition your every desire for goodness and your every deed prompted by faith. We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.~II Thessalonians 1:11-12~
For most of the past twenty plus years, I've chosen a verse or two from the Bible to remind me of my purpose for homeschooling or remind me to be faithful in prayer or to trust God.
