Children are our future; the hope of the nation and the future of our country. We should cherish our children, and invest in them for an altruistic cause. I believe that children are one of our greatest assets, and to shower graceful love to our children is indeed a great pleasure. While I understand that having children is an issue of couples having enough love, maturity and money, most of us probably continue to develop our self and assist our family in love. Well, from the viewpoint of a teacher, every child is precious and should be nurtured to fulfil his or her potential as good contributors to society. A pastor understands that each child is a gift from God, and should be taught love values for their character development. I am confident that every parents love their children and will give them the best love and guidance that could be afforded.
For me, while I am contemplating having children well into my thirties, I feel I can always contribute to childcare as early as now, when I am still in university. An inspiration touch my mind and my heartened self felt the joy of nurturing children for charity. I love all children, and I understood the children at Melrose Children Home, a place I love to be affiliated to, needs special care, therefore I render my service to them as best as I can.
Yesterday was special. I prayed to God for strength and wisdom to teach the children a game of scrabble constructively and conducively. I understand the need to be flexible as water, as well as be a nurturing senior to the children. I explained the ground rules for their benefit(basic game rule as well as only good words allowed), and I understand the need to introduce Scrabble to them in a soft and purposeful manner. Cooperation and friendliness is well-encouraged. I hope to build good english foundation for children and at the same time, give them a candle of hope for their future. Sometimes, I have to mention about courtesy and well-mannerism to the children for their character development. Once in a while, I share some words of wisdom with the children for their future, like forgiveness, gratitude and graciousness.
Being with children and doing charity is truly a joyous experience for me, and I understood the words of Jesus Christ, that being a servant leader is a rewarding experience.
