A broken and a contrite heart..

Like a mountain buffeted by the elements Like a rock broken into grains of sand I am become like a vessel of clay that is being reshaped Like a tree that loosens its leaves in Autumn Appearing to wither, yet in a process of renewal Initiated by not myself Have I asked for this process? Has the LORD taken me by the hand? No longer wanting to trust in my own power, But in a strong foundation that cannot be moved A strong Fortress, a High Tower, A shield from the ambitions & desires of this world Though the sea may sweep over me, and my tears form rivers, I have been given faith to endure I have been broken My spirit has become contrite My heart hopes in Him For more, go to http://www.CoachBill.US Twitter.Com @CoachBill007 Instagram: CoachBill007 Youtube: CoachBill007

Is the emotional development of the individual learner, not as important, if not more important, than just focusing on a liberal education that emphasizes the traditional core academics? Would our society be changed for the better if we all were taught from day one in our educational experience that the development of your whole self is crucial for one's success in life? What would that actually look like during a school week? Understandably, these are big questions. They should be part of a national debate on what education's goals and aims should be in America.
