I think not!
Yesterday, I emailed some friends asking them to pray about a career change I am considering and have started looking into. That afternoon during lunch, my devotional was all about change – how to know when God is bringing change, when to make a midstream correction, etc. It asked to focus a few questions to determine if you were running away from something or if, instead, it was time for a real change. My answers all pointed toward time for a real change.
I have a Mary Engelbreit daily calendar on my desk and when I came in this morning and flipped over to today, the quote was, “A teacher affects eternity; she can never know where her influence stops.” (Henry Brooks Adams) And teaching just happens to be the career I am looking into…!!!
I do believe the time has come…
Teaching is an honorable career choice. There are too few caring teachers in this world.
