The benefit of having a relationship with my
heavenly Father is that I have someone in my life, who loves me unconditionally,
is reliable and trustworthy, and financially able to support my every need.
Existing without him in my life is doable but to live without him, for me, is
impossible. Numerous of times I have tried to imagine what my life would be
like without the belief that Jesus is the son of God, that God is the Father
and creator of all people and things; and that the Holy Spirit is a gift to me
from Jesus to assist in my pursuit of living a godly lifestyle and I cannot do
it. I am unable to imagine my life without that belief; every thought and
action of quality that I have made in my adult life can be traced back to that
belief.
The benefit of having a source of income
allows me to maintain a home, care for myself and children, support other
ministries and organizations, and occasionally help someone else in need.
Without this support, I and my family would experience lack in many areas and
the impact would be living a lifestyle that required me to become dependent on
others for our survival.
The benefit of attending WU is the support I
receive towards strengthening my knowledge and understanding in areas of
interests and unrealized interests. Without research based-evidence, the extent
of my knowledge and understandings would be based on experiences and traditions
which are, by themselves, unreliable.
Since the death of my husband, I will admit
that I miss the support a husband gives to a wife and look forward to the day
when I am able to experience it again. Until then, I will continue to enjoy my
single, but not alone lifestyle with family and friends. I receive support from
my adult daughters, who step in on occasions as caregiver assistants when I am
away from the facility. I also recognize parents as a support to ensuring
children have what they need and come to the facility ready to learn. When
parents and teachers work together for the good of the child, the results lead
to children who grow up to be healthy, wealthy, and wise.
Not having parents as a support system can be
detrimental to the program in that it will create chaos and confusion that
could result in an enrollment reduction which could lead to closure if not
corrected.
