What does this mean? Teachers need your help boxing up books, personal items, lifting boxes, cleaning, and so much needs to be done before June 1st.

| | | | | | | | | | | "The Service of Motherhood" Children are a blessing from the Lord (Ps. 127:3-5). Motherhood is a great honor and privilege, yet it is also synonymous with servanthood. Every day women are called upon to selflessly meet the needs of their families. Whether they are awake at night nursing a baby, spending their time and money on less-than-grateful teenagers, or preparing meals, moms continuously put others before themselves.
Sometimes this constant serving can be exhausting and even discouraging--particularly for a first-time mother. But you can take real encouragement from Jesus. One of the best examples of gracious servanthood is found in John 13:3-16. By kneeling to wash His disciples' feet, the Lord showed that the key to true leadership is humility. And it is humility that leads to eternal reward.
Unless you are willing to stoop down and get your hands dirty, you will miss the real riches of motherhood. By dying to your own desires and pouring your life into someone else, you become like Christ and create a godly legacy that will carry on for generations to come. What greater blessing could one hope for? Of course, the motivation for serving others is not to reap benefits, but when we follow God's plan for our life, that's what happens.
In giving us children, God places us in a position of both leadership and service. He calls us to give up our lives for someone else's sake--to abandon our own desires and put our child's interests first. Yet, according to His perfect design, it is through this selflessness that we can become truly fulfilled.
 Please continue to keep Calvary Christian School - the faculty, staff, students, volunteers, and parents in your prayers throughout the school year. (Borrowed from Charles Stanley &In Touch Ministries, Inc. 2016) | | |
