Why God Made Teachers

When God created teachers,
He gave us special friends
To help us understand His world
And truly comprehend
The beauty and the wonder
Of everything we see,
And become a better person
With each discovery.

When God created teachers,
He gave us special guides
To show us ways in which to grow
So we can all decide
How to live and how to do
What's right instead of wrong,
To lead us so that we can lead
And learn how to be strong.

Why God created teachers,
In His wisdom and His grace,
Was to help us learn to make our world
A better, wiser place.

Let me start this early morning
with a smile, a care
let ther be learning,
peace and understanding.


Oh Lord my God

Whom you had given me
to take care of till the end of time

A Tale in Heaven

 St. Peter once again went into another round of screening souls whether they could be admitted or not into the firmaments of heaven. Of course, he underscored the importance of remarkable deeds as the sole basis for such selections. This first soul, a doctor, reasoned out that he cured a lot of sick persons among whom where the world's leading celebrities and political figures. Not to be outshone, the second soul who was an engineer, sounded rather extremely boastful by saying that he builds the world's known structures like towering buildings and awe-imposing bridges. Moreover, the third soul, a lawyer, recalled w/ a great pride his glorious moments of defending the oppressed right in his own trouble-ridden country. Such unjustly treated ones include top-ranking opposition leaders, key labor figures, concerned farmers as well as students activists. However, not one of them was not able to impress the seemingly hard-to-please St. peter. At this point, the fourth soul approached him and briefly said; ' I taught them all, including the doctor, the engineer and the lawyer". definitely, at that moment, St. Peter knew that he had found the most deserving of all, and that is the TEACHER!
