Today I had to deal with a situation with a student who became disruptive and disrespectful in my class. The situation took place towards the end of the day last Friday and so there really wasn't a lot of time to deal with it then. I thought about it over the weekend; how I was going to approach it, what the Lord had revealed to me and what the outcome should be. In seeking the Lord, he took me back to a time when my husband and I was receiving parenting counseling. In that counseling session, we learned how; obedience does not mean agreement. You see, it's easy for us to obey a request or a command. But it doesn't necessarily mean, you are in agreement with it. For us to get to a place of agreement, we first have to get to a place of acknowledgement and acceptance. It's kinda like entering rehab or starting a rehabilitation program of some type. You first have to acknowledge that you have a problem or there is a problem and then accept your behavior, choices
"For you are saved by grace through faith, and this is not from yourselves; it is God's gift - 9 not from works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are HIS workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared ahead of time for us to do." Ephesians 2:8-10
