I count that a joy. Yes, I am their teacher but the task is much more then teaching them. It's an element of love. This love sometimes means:
* Rocking a child to sleep when sometimes you just want to rest
* Offering them your last chicken nugget even though you may have wanted it
* Crying with them because you know that their feelings are so real
* Wiping their noses
* Laughing with them
* Allowing them to be the great story teller
These needs are so basic but these little things are so important. I gladly do them because this is what I would want even for my own child. I'm thankful God would entrust me with the task. I count it a great joy! Therefore I ask you, How has God honored your desires?
Psalm 37:4
Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart
