A. I am an identifier.
First, identify the enemy. It is NOT the child!
The flesh and blood I focus on isnt the real
enemy. The Accuser delights in deflecting
my anger onto the students, which should
be directed toward him. Satan is the enemy,
and he will try to use me to hurt a child if I
allow it. I must be on constant guard of my
emotions! Remember, we choose how we
respond to each student and each situation.
Second, identify the cause of this childs
reluctance.
Third, identify this childs strengths and
weaknesses. That will help zero in on the
best approach.
Finally, identify workable solutions to help
this child succeed.
B. I am an influencer.
An instructor is a person who is used by God
to change or influence the lives of others.
Above all else give them Jesus. Jesus is where
our gaze needs to be always, especially when
things are overwhelming. Let your students
daily witness a Godly life in your life.
C. I am an ensurer.
D. I am a worker.
E. I am a listener.
F. I am a striver.
G. I am a Believer.
Train Children
to Take
Responsibility
Training children to take responsibility seems to be a well-concealed secret
in our society. Parents want their children to feel good rather than taking
the time to build character because discipline and character training are
hard work. Consider these points:
A. Train how to deal with feelings.
Children must be taught how to deal properly with their feelings.
This takes much love, patience, and continual training. It doesnt
happen quickly. Dont give up! Remember: God is still working
on me.
B. Train to respond, not react.
Many children dont understand that their behavior is a direct
response to what they are feeling. That is why training them
how to handle specific situations is so important. Teach them to
respond, not to react. Role plays can really help with this. If this
______ happened, how would you respond? Then discuss the
appropriateness of their answer. Give them ideas for other (more
appropriate) options. Lead them scripturally.
C. Set the example.
Be the example by learning to control your anger rather than
letting it control you. Instead of anger, may passion for what
touches Jesus heart (the children) drive us to act in love. A
primary threat to a child is his own anger; it can damage or
destroy him. Learning to handle his anger will give him an
advantage in life; many of lifes problems can be averted, if one
learns to hold his tongue. Dealing with anger influences the
development of ones personal integrity. Not dealing with ones
anger leaves pockets of immaturity in ones character. This will
affect ones spiritual development. When anger is not dealt with,
often it will result in passive-aggressive behavior. This behavior
doesnt make sense and it tries to hurt. Since the purpose is to
upset the authority, no matter what action you take, it will make
no difference. Ultimately the student will be defeated and have
his future and relationships affected by this behavior.
D. Praise positive effort.
Love him into doing right! If he is stalled, it will take much
encouragement to get and keep him rolling again. Try saying his
Character Counts!
Appreciative
Thank You, Lord Jesus, for giving
me such a wonderful grandfather.
Thank You, too, for my mother
and my grandmother. Bless them all.

WORLD WATCH
Whats happening
in Malaysia?
Famous for its white sandy beaches and rich spices, oil,
and gas, Malaysia is often thought of as a benign country
because little excitement ever happens there. A.C.E.
thinks differently. Schools using the Accelerated Christian
Education curriculum are appearing all over Malaysia.
It is exciting to see the growth and hear how Christian
education is increasingly being accepted.
Malaysia is the southernmost tip of the continent of
Eurasia in Southeast Asia, surrounded and split by the
South China Sea. It is made up of thirteen states and
three federal territories. A tropical climate is enjoyed by
its ethnically diverse people, including a few aboriginal
people groups. Islam is the national religion in Malaysia,
with Buddhism a close second; however, the government
promotes freedom of religion. This diversity of people,
cultures, and religion contributes to its monarchy with
a unique political atmosphere in which a king is elected
every five years.
Malaysias educational system requires students to attend
school from first through sixth grades (712 years old).
Kindergarten and junior and senior high school are optional
but are available at no charge.
Malaysia was introduced to Accelerated Christian
Education in the late 1990s with homeschools, and the
first school using the A.C.E. curriculum began in 1998.
Currently there are 31 schools, which vary in size from
