TABLE BEFORE US

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Psalm 23:5, NIV

As Christian educators in public schools, we cannot teach the words in this Psalm directly. But we can be living examples by standing boldly on this incredible promise. The truth is that Holy Spirit-filled Christians, overflowing with the love of God, are appealing. Even our enemies will wonder what we have and will want a part of that kind of peace!

Jesus, thank You that in the midst of the craziness happening around me, you enable me to live in peace and abundance. Use me to show those around me how attractive Your perfect peace is today. Amen.
