Daily writing prompt
What makes a teacher great?

You might be thinking that I am being funny, but not at all…

What one thing can be used to hold together all the education, determination, and drive to be a teacher? What is it that keeps the passion alive to serve tirelessly every day to instill wisdom, knowledge, and positive behavior in our young…

Underfunded, overworked, and bound with myriads of red tape from a government struggling to be in control of that which they have no business doing, in my opinion…

I figured it out, I think…

It’s LOVE…

I was just reading this yesterday and I figured I would share it with you, as it seems rather relevant to the daily prompt question…

“Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have with one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.”

Colossians 3: 12-14

  1. Love is indeed a powerful force that can hold together the qualities of a great teacher. It is the love for their students, their subject, and the act of teaching itself that drives teachers to serve tirelessly every day. Despite challenges like underfunding and bureaucratic constraints, love keeps their passion alive. Love enables teachers to embody qualities such as compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience, as mentioned in the scripture you shared. Love binds these virtues together, allowing teachers to create a positive and unified learning environment. Thanks for sharing!
