How will the concepts discussed in this lesson impact your teaching?
-
When we encourage students to change their mindset from living on Earth to preparing for Heaven, they begin to change their disposition and priorities. They become a more engaged, thoughtful, and receptive student, because the lesson is focused on a permanent Heavenly goal verses a temporary life lesson that will be shorter on Earth.

I loved Dr. Black’s comments on starting over if we have a bad day or the class did badly on a quiz. She suggested ripping up the paper and giving a cheer. I would not have thought of this. We have, however, taken an outdoor break.
-
I like the idea of purposely adding into the lesson plans time for the students discover their calling. I think it is really important that they come to this on their own instead of being told what someone else thinks their calling is or should be.
-
Guiding the students to understand that even though we have a hope for an eternal future we also have a responsibility here on earth with what God has given us and the calling He has made on our lives.
-
I am reminded that I need to encourage my seniors to not just apply to colleges, but seek His direction for their futures. They need to pray fervently, for the Lord to reveal what His plan is for their life after high school. Remind them to search and seek for what their purpose is.
