When your strength is small...

go to God and ask Him for wisdom and help!  He will always give you what you need.  A teacher cannot keep going day after day without getting discouraged, tired, and weak.  When you deal day in and day out with people...young friends and old alike...you need to take time to rest and refresh!  Eat healthy food.  Get a good night's sleep.  Have a hobby.  Take time to be with family and friends.  Spend time with God in reading His words and in prayer.  Take naps.  Spend time collaborating with co-workers.  Ask God for His wisdom and He will lead you.  You will see how He guides you through each day and moment that cause you to stop in wonder of what to do next.
Teaching...working with little friends and their needs can be very draining.  Realize that you cannot fix every struggle that pops up.  Do the best you can do and do it with joy and kindness.
Remember to do something other than schoolwork each day and especially on the weekends.  You will be able to invest in the little lives with renewed strength each day.
