I really do set a horrible example to look up to. The little kids, aren't the ONLY ones looking up to me. But the bigger kids (highschool, teens, I only call them kids because I'll be, and am a teacher to them)...they're important too. They will look at me as a mentor, and I have already been given the name of a 'counsellor', someone to learn from and follow after. I can't continue to act immature, as I please to be. This is a role...a responsibility now.
James 3:
1Not many of you should presume to be teachers, my brothers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly. 2We all stumble in many ways. If anyone is never at fault in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to keep his whole body in check.
Man, and clearly, i JUST did a Bible study on this. Do I just...not soak it in?
And also...
13Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. 14But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. 15Such "wisdom" does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, of the devil. 16For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.
17But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.18Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness.
--//And now, and even before, I realized all these thoughts are presented, but never solved. hmm, even more thinking...and thinking...what do i do about it?
--//Oh yea, one thing about Kids are (more so, the little kids)...I don't know how to respond to them. Like, just the stuff that kids say...I don't know what to say back. I don't know what a GOOD response is lol. I DO want to get along with the kids...AND create an environment so they can benefit from it spiritually (which will involve consequences & punishment).
