Dear God . . . Can you change my teacher? He's not a nice person.
Ana, often when people aren't nice it's because they can't find a reason to smile. Maybe your sweet spirit can be just the thing to turn him around! This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. An old English proverb says, "The soul is healed by being with children!" Invest your life into a child in a deep and personal way, to help that child's character grow … and just watch what kind of healing it brings to you! Volunteer with the soccer team, as a helper in the children's music group, or a worker in Pioneer clubs. Be an active role model who befriends a child. Appreciate and point out specific good qualities you see in his or her life. This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion for a child in your world.
