Catholic Life and Reflection
One of the great blessings of teaching is being able to help students manage their emotions. I don't always have the same experience as the children, I am honest about that but I try to let them know I have heard them.
I acknowlege their anxiety, stress and sadness. I may offer solutions but I try not to come flying in to save them. Sometimes all we crave as humans is to share our thoughts and feelings; to be acknowledged for how we are feeling and where we are at in our lives.
This scripture comes to mind.
‘Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.'
Jesus doesn't say, I will fix all your problems for you. He says unburden yourself and then rest.
I hope you find some time to rest in prayer and the Lord this weekend.
God bless,
Stephanie Stewart
