In responding to Sunday sermon on trying my best at work, I have been praying for a right attitude towards my work these few mornings. I have been praying to be more patient towards my students. Getting pissed-off easily by my students' misbehaviours has been my constant struggle as a teacher.
In the past, the only way out for me to get rid of my anger is just simply scold them. Scolding is a straight forward and easy way out. By doing so, indeed I'm not trying my best to change and educate my students. A more proper way should be discipline together with counseling.
In school I really can't find time to sit down and talk to them, but God convicted me to still try my best to arrange to meet up with them.
For the past few days, I find myself being more patient to them and was able to talk to them more graciously. May God's spirit continue to guide me to grow myself in this virtue - patience. Please also pray together with me so that I will really love my students as how God love them.
