Think I made the wrong decision…
I think I made the wrong decision the other day and didnt stand up for what I believed in or the needs of a particular student.
One student in patrticluar has started becoming really dependant on us and visits at least several times a day. When we got to the bottom of it it was because he was stressed and possibly on the edge of a breakdown. I happened to mark his pdp assignment the other day and learnt he was a christian. Having known him personally I started to think about him and pray for him. Then he comes along 6 times in one day asking silly questions and J and R see the need to rescue me from him.

At the time it was funny, but Im left feeling that I didnt take enough of an interest in him. I could have prayed with him. I felt bad all evening that I hadnt taken the right decision. I wish I had invested in his life more…. I hope the opportunity arises again. I do care and I want to show him that God does too. I want to show him compassion, I want to be Gods hands, eyes and feet on this planet.
