Wow! How March is hitting me like a wrecking ball. I'm running and feel like I can't catch up. Is this you, too? Let's take a breath and together remember that we can press on. We have a race to run and a Savior who holds our hand through it. Let's let Him be our strength; the race can only end in victory when we do. Keep Marching.

March brings hope. The hope of warmer weather, of a week off of school, and of accepting restarts. Generally, by the time March rolls around, my New Year commitments need refreshing or revising. Right now, I'm pondering a more thorough and regular cleaning routine. Not at all what I want to do, but what I feel needs doing. What does March bring for you? Are you also looking forward to warmer weather, relaxation, and restarting forgotten goals? Or is something else entirely on your mind?  Whatever it is, know that God is ready to help, all you need do is ask. So, keep a song in your heart and know you're never alone. He wants to work  with you. We're praying you reach up and accept the help  and hope He's offering.

JOY is the sound of laughter. Laughter that radiates from your head to your toes. Laughter that won't stop and keeps bubbling up for more.

There are a lot of things about March that are not fair: like cold weather staying around when we're ready for warmth; like the radio announcer talking about summer when it isn't yet spring; like preparing learners for state testing when there are so many other things you would rather be teaching. But, I suppose, what is fair is a matter of who is judging. This March, I want to challenge you to resign from your position as Supreme Judge in the Kingdom of You and reinstate God to His rightful throne. Afterall, He is the only one qualified to truly judge fairly. It might mean handing your hurt to the healer and letting Him work. It might mean releasing your anger to Him so He can turn it to good. It might mean embracing the JOY in overwhelming circumstances because you choose to rest in His presence through them.  If you are determined to bring JOY into your home or classroom, even when you don't really feel like it, we have a few ideas for you. Our March 2024 offerings inclu...

Does the story of the Good Samaritan make you uneasy, too? I hear it and I want to believe I would be the one to help, but I don't know that I would. Yet what JOY resulted from the Samaritan's choice to help, at notable risk to himself, when he was under no obligation or expectation to.

Move, keep [Marchin']. Soldier keep movin' on!  That song, " Move, (Keep Walkin') ," by Toby Mac, is one that often inspires me to keep going, which is exactly what we need this time of year. Spring Break is around the corner and your learners know it! What's more, you're also thinking about state testing, end of year evaluations, job security, and prep for the upcoming year. It's a lot, Leaders, but we know you have what it takes to make it through. Keep marching! Step-by-step. Before you know it, you will be at the end.

We're praying for your endurance this month, Leaders! Here's what we're offering on the March 2...
