V - God Holds the Victory

There are days when it feels like you’re fighting an uphill battle. You’re praying for someone who is struggling, working through a difficult situation, or wondering if your efforts are making a difference at all.

Take heart. The outcome doesn’t rest on your shoulders. God already holds the victory. Even when you cannot see what He is doing, He is working behind the scenes in ways you may never fully understand.

📖 Verse: “But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
1 Corinthians 15:57 NLT

🙏 Prayer:
Lord, thank You that victory belongs to You. When I feel discouraged or defeated, help me remember that You are still at work. Give me the faith to keep showing up, trusting that You can accomplish far more than I ever could on my own. Amen.

4CN went to Love, Serve, and Grow at Just Friends this past Wednesday. They played games, colored, and chatted with the Just Friends participants. The students did an outstanding job being Jesus' hands and feet. Before we left, one of students said a prayer for them. Great job, 4CN students!! After a wonderful visit at Just Friends, we stopped by to enjoy the new Mill Race Playground! 🛝

U - God Understands You

Maybe you've felt like the outsider on your team. Maybe your parenting style looks different than everyone else's, or you've questioned whether you're doing enough. You carry the weight of your children, your family, the expectations placed on you, and the pressure to somehow do it all.

God understands every part of your story. He knows your heart, sees what you're carrying, and understands your calling in a way no one else can. You never have to prove yourself to Him because He already knows you completely.

📖 Verse: “O Lord, you have examined my heart and know everything about me.”
Psalm 139:1

🙏 Prayer:
Lord, thank You for understanding me completely. When I feel unseen, misunderstood, or like I don't quite fit in, remind me that You know my heart. Help me find confidence in who You've created me to be instead of comparing myself to everyone around me.- Amen

T - God Transforms Your Life

One of the beautiful things about following Jesus is that He never leaves us the way He found us. Little by little, He shapes our hearts, changes the way we think, and helps us become more like Him.

God is growing us. He uses every season, every challenge, and every victory to transform us into the person He created us to be.

📖 Verse: “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.” - ‭‭Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭2‬

🙏 Prayer:
Lord, thank You for continuing to transform my life. Shape my heart to reflect You in the way I teach, speak, and love others. Help me trust that You are still working in me, even when I cannot see all that You are doing. -Amen

Teachers LOVE a lunch away from the cafeteria and are always SO thankful when they do get one.

Let's show appreciation to our awesome SPLS teachers by letting them have a lunch away from the cafeteria each quarter. Lunchtime coverage volunteers would be in charge of helping students at their tables, making sure they are staying in their seats, reminding them to clean up, and getting lined up....
