Romans 12:10
New International Version (NIV)
10 Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.
Daniel 2:41-44
King James Version (KJV)
41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay.
42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken.
43 And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.
44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.

Dear Lord, thank you for today. Lord I pray that you will soften our hearts to see and hear our brothers and sisters today. Help me to be "kindly affectionate with brotherly love" to everyone that I encounter today. Lord I do not want to be a passive wimp. I want to have assertive dominance. I want to find the balance where I am respected and I am reflecting your love. Allow me to be consistent today. I want to do what I said I will do. Allow me to look beyond my selfishness. My desires are not the only thing that is important. Let me lower my voice and amplify your voice. We have been working on conversation levels in the classroom and I think I have improved in that area, somewhat. I will stop and think before I speak. We are a work in progress. I will never stop trying, no matter how much I mess up. I have to keep trying. I can't give up. Soften My Heart Lord. I love you. I pray that you are successful today with whatever you are asking God to work on for you. You have the faith of a mustard seed. I know it will come into fruition. I smile just thinking about you. Have a blessed day today.
