I am not ashamed.
Some people say that I could do
better.
But what is better than
vicariously influencing the world
through teaching the next
generation?
I can have more impact
than civic leaders or presidents
of million-dollar industries.
There is no higher calling;
yes, the world may think that I needÂ
a higher ambition,
a loftier goal.
But fame is not good enough for me.
I will be a servant and shepherd—
and thereby achieve far greater things
than this world has ever seen.
“Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her. Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all. Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.” ~Proverbs 31:25-31
