There is a positive thing about attending a Christian
college and it is to see things from a Christian perspective ( an opportunity
that not many people have). Two professors from the college visited our class
and spoke on diversity.
They gave us the perspective of looking at our students in
the way that God wants us to see them. We are called to see them with eyes of
love—unconditional love. He created them
differently for a reason. We need them to survive. As a body of Christians, we
each have a specific gift or contribution for others, when we learn to accept our
students in that same manner, we will have a glimpse of what the kingdom will
look likeJ
An interesting topic we stumbled across was the idea of stereotypes.
Often times we see students of color and assume that they are less capable. We
usually do not think twice about students who are Caucasian, but they also can
come from impoverished homes. They can also come from homes in which their
families have never gotten passed high school. It’s important to look all
around and to take different precautions.
The aaronic blessing
God bless you and keep you,
God smile on you and gift you,
God look you full in the face
and make you prosper.
