Every year for the past 3 years or so, dear husband has become a cheerleader! Every football and basketball season our local high school cheerleaders have a father/daughter night for the cheerleaders. And every year for a variety of reasons some of the girls don’t’t have a dad around to cheer with them. So they asked one of their teachers……….my husband!!
Can I tell you just how pathetic the dear man looks as a cheerleader! 🙂 He can play drums, but he certainly doesn’t have the moves for cheerleading! But he does it each year with a good attitude and has fun with it!
I think he also sees a greater purpose in all of this, we are part of this great community we live in, and we strive to be a light to our local school district. To “be there” for people and for the students. Drums and I both teach for the local high school that our kids attend, we are an integral part of this town, and we strive to make a difference for Christ…….even if it means being a cheerleader! 🙂 Being a light in the darkness is what God has called us to, our prayer is that God will use us here in our town!
Also, I must tell those of you who are regular readers here at Jesus and Dark Chocolate, our family could really use your prayers right now, we are enduring an unexpected crisis that I just can’t blog about at this time. Please feel free to email me or send me a private message on facebook and I can tell you more. But do pray for us……we need it!!
Hi there sister in Christ,
you and your family are doing such amazing work and just look how our God is using you. I will pray for you and your family in your time of crisis. I will leave you with this verse from Psalm 55:22 Cast your burden on the LORD, And He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.
Do take care and have a blessed day.
Hi Sandy! Yes…..you are both being lights in the darkness at your public schools…my daughters and I feel the same way in our own district….and…will inbox you via FB about your prayer request…I don’t need to know details! GOD KNOWS…lifting you up tonite…..the woman who commented before me just left a great Scripture for you to cling to…God’s promises are TRUE!
I think this is a great compliment to your husband to be asked. The kids must really like him as their teacher! You know they wouldn’t pick the teacher whose clase they dread going to!
Sending the Versatile Blogger award on to you! I linked to you from my blog.
