I sometime dont feel like Im reaching these kids but God encourages me to keep on doing what he has tasked me to do. When I do my Stay out of jail teaching and when I put that smart, smug young wanna be thug against the wall as an example in my classroom of whats going to happen to them when five guys my size is going to do to them what only a husband and his wife are supposed to do God shows me a great reward when I see that toughness fall out of the wanna be thugs eyes as they realize that what Im telling them is no joke. Praise God for scared straight programs and for Godly people who are willing to speak into kids lives before and when they get into trouble. I encourage you to speak into both the good kid and the kid that gets into trouble the truth about what happens when they make bad choices. Lastly, I remember one quote from one of the correction officers that stuck with me that I love, When we make bad choices we have little to no control over the consequences that may follow...and you wont like them if you end up here (prison/jail). youtube/watch?v=FXSfDHmiNCY&index=11&list=PLcviVtB85dLz5dd96WGDFOs-xjjvb20sk
