The Greatest Legacy

As a part of the founding team and now serving as Director of Cornerstone Christian Academy, one of my greatest fears is that we will spend our time educating our students academically and fail to give them the greatest legacy of all which is a purpose for living.  We could invest time sharing the secrets of Language, Math, Science, Social Studies and even Religion, and fail to share Jesus Christ and His plan for their lives and we would have failed miserably.  We could lead them to great success in standardized test scores but not help them understand the tests of life, and we would not accomplish what we were designed to do.

God has a definite plan and purpose for everything He created and this includes every child who enters the doors of CCA.

"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end."  Jeremiah 29:11

These words, spoken by God  to Jeremiah in the Old Testament, confirm that God had a plan for him but also remind us that God has a plan for each child.  When  we are chosen to educate a child, we are also assigned, along with parents and extended families and church,  to help that child find the purpose God has for his life if he is really going to be successful.
