I've been blessed to have spent a great deal of time serving Jr High and High school students for a number of years. When I'm not caring for my own two grand littles that is. Those were some of my favorite years of service and a responsibility I have never taken lightly. It's a privilege to intentionally be in the right place at the right time to pour into a childs life. Not to parent them, that was never my role and isn't with my grand babies either. Yet, to be available for good council, spiritual advice, and sometimes just to ask them the right question that will ultimately help them make a better choice (as opposed to a poor choice that may have a life time consequence attached to it.) Thats a great use of time and energy. No matter the cost.
