Scripture:
Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works,
and in your teaching show integrity, dignity, and sound speech that cannot be
condemned, so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say
about us. Titus 2:7-8
Prayer:
Lord we pray for adjunct college professors. We pray that they will have good success this
year. We pray that wherever their feet
trod, that they will be a blessing. Many
of them teach at multiple colleges to make a livable wage, we pray that they
have gas money to fill their tanks, lunch money to fill their bellies, and
technology to fill their minds. We pray
that they have a heart for their students, so that they can teach them to the
best of their abilities. If they wish to
become full-time professors, we pray that You will open of doors for them. When they become discouraged, we pray that
they will have an encounter with former or current students that will encourage
them to continue with their teaching.
Let them be able to get the help they need from their deans, department
chairs, and administration. Give them a
heart of love, a tongue of calming truth, a mouth of genuineness, a mind of
honesty, hands of tenderness, and ears of attentiveness. Let them know when to
speak, when to listen, and when to act.
Be their guide and compass as they navigate the school year. Thank You. Amen.
