Greetings. I apologize to anyone for not thanking and responding to them for praying for me. I thank anyone who did. I’ve been working in Chicago Public Schools now for a while. I’m really being persecuted. I work my job to and for the glory of God with all my heart. Today, I was really hit by a fiery dart. A 3rd grade child dumped snow on another 3rd grade child’s head. He then kicked him below his waist, making him buckle down and cry. I was working the playground and breaking up fight after fight. …But when this 3rd grader did this, I separated him, and scolded him loudly, telling him he should not do that. When he retorted that the other boy hit him first (which I did not see), I told him loudly that I told him time and time before that if he gets hit, to not hit back, but obtain an adult. Well, then the teacher of the class yells at me in front of the parents and children for yelling at the child. Then, while she was walking her class to the room two other skirmishes broke out in the back of her line. I verbally broke them up. She them reports me to the office; I’m now being reprimanded because I do my job “too intenselyâ€Â. Mind that just two days ago, I broke up another fight between four kids, two from my school and two who weren’t, at the playground after school. One kid from my school lunged to roundhouse one kid; as I got in front of him, he swung and smacked me hard in the arm. The called the police, arrested the two kids that were not from our school, and hauled them into the office with the police. I did what I was suppose to do to prevent injury from happening to the kids. In the office them, when I began to report how this kid from my school (attending the school that I work at; he was in 7th or 8th grade), one of the assistant principals grabbed me by the arm and yanked me out of the office, stating that “This is not the time to do thisâ€Â. They would not press charges on this child. I was told they had complaints about me from parents and staff, but would not be specific, other than that when I perform my work, I go overboard. I’m not sure about my job status that awaits me this morning at work. I have a baby to take care of, and a wife. Pray for my marriage and family. Everyone whom I talked to outside this school environment told me that this that is happening to me is bogus and politics. As I stand before Jesus and not lie, I have done nothing wrong morally, ethically, or legally. …And that’s what’s really scaring me the most. I want His will so badly in my life. Yet, I’ve been going through so much suffering for so long, sometimes I feel like I just want to give up- even though my conscience won’t let me. What scares me is that this is the first time in years that I’m beginning to have doubts about myself. What do I have to do to keep a job? To do right? …And do these to concerns have to conflict in my life, or is it me? I’m so stumped now. I really need deliverance and peace inwardly and outwardly. I feel humiliated like Jesus was when He was made off scour on the cross. Please pray for His complete deliverance in my life. I feel as lonely as ever now. With all my heart, Ben
