My class has had to write two poems that they like to recite from Penmanship. Something led me to share them here with you. There is such truth to the words in them and so simply put.
IMPORTANT RULES
Whatever you are, be honest;
Whatever you do, do well.
Whatever you speak, speak kindly;
Give joy wherever you dwell.
DO THE BEST
Love the beautiful, seek out the true,
Wish for the good, and the best do!
I know that I do want to be honest all the time. I want to speak kindly and wish for good to those whom I have allowed to hurt me. To do my best no matter what. To always see the beauty in everything GOD has created. And most importantly to be TRUE!!
Plus, I remember always telling my students in Korea to spread JOY wherever they were. Wow, that whole idea of putting JESUS and Others before Yourself.
They are important rules that we must do our best to do.
This started as my online journal of the journey GOD was taking me on to teach in Seoul, South Korea and now continues with where HE is leading me after there. My goal in life is to have my life reflect Christ, sometimes without ever even having to say a word. After all, the best gift we have to share is who HE has created us to be.
"Lord... give me the gift of faith to be renewed and shared with others each day. Teach me to live this moment only, looking neither to the past with regret, nor the future with apprehension. Let love be my aim and my life a prayer." ~Roseann Alexander-Isham
