“Heavenly Father, you are the great provider, and you always take care of me. You give me a reason to sing. When I have good days, let me have a thankful heart. When my days are long and I’m tired, give me a thankful heart then too. Whether things are easy and I love my job or teaching is harder than ever and I’m questioning everything, remind me to praise you. Remind me also what a privilege it is to be a teacher. Thank you for my job, Lord. Even on the most difficult days I am grateful to have it. In your Son’s precious name, amen.
