Fellowship, Kindness & love

As God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience

Colossians 3:12

Do to others as you would have them do to you.

Luke 6:31

Make sure that nobody pays back wrong for wrong, but always try to be kind to each other and to everyone else

1 Thessalonians 5:15

Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins

1 Peter 4:8

When teaching students I think that there are no better scriptures that these. As a teacher we must always remember to treat others as we would like to be treated and not repay tit -for tat. Students can be harsh and unkind and the only way to change them is to lead by example. If you are a teacher that is kind and loving but also teaches students that respect is met with respect it doesn't matter if you make mistakes along the way. Students will remember the life lessons you taught them.
