Fill me up, Lord

"You will seek me, & find me when you seek me w/ all your heart," God says. But that is not the whole story. I'm not just a searcher. I'm also a hider. You too. We have to come face-to-face w/ our tendency to hide, to get lost. ~John Ortberg, Love Beyond Reason

Commitment with Community: This is love.

There are a number of us at work that have the following agreement with each other:

-if for some reason an individual amongst us has to take some sort of unexpected leave from school, the rest of us are to immediately go into the individual's classroom & remove any ungraded papers

-if an individual is unexpectedly sent to the ER from school in an ambulance, someone is to remove all jewelery from the said individual including rings before the emergency vehicle departs

-if one of us dies, we are to come to the funeral in separate cars, so it looks like more people showed up.
