Why Great Teachers and Administrators Often Don’t Fit In

You need to set aside a few minutes and listen to these words by Billy Graham.

I am going to link a video where Billy Graham speaks to those who God calls to a specific purpose. Graham’s words hit the mark…

Rejection(in your life) is not a punishment. It is preparation……God is redirecting you. He is protecting you. He is making sure that you do not settle for something less than His purpose He has for your life….That way when He sends you out, you are ready.

Great innovators in education are often scorned. They are often the subject of rejection by the establishment. They will be ridiculed and mocked. But when you walk into their innovative classrooms and buildings, you will know it immediately. Their learning environments are inviting.

Dr Graham continues….

Your value is not determined by the people who reject you. If God chose you, no amount of rejection will stop God’s plan….He is often removing people from your life who are impeding your path…The higher the purpose, the lonelier the road.

Every rejection is God’s way of saying He has something better.

And now the good stuff ->

When God is finished (shaping you), you will be unshakeable.
