To Teach is To Touch A Life

A true woman says, "Yes, Lord".
The Word of God is her compass, motivating her to live intentionally and counter-culturally.
  • Psalm 25:9-10  "He leads the humble in what is right, teaching them His way.  The Lord leads with unfailing love and faithfulness all those who keep His covenant and obey His decrees."
Think of your favorite teacher.
What made you like him/her?  Did they know and love the subject that they taught, making you love it too?  Did they challenge you to do better, work harder and achieve more? What was it about them and their teaching style?  These attributes are what makes great teachers.
This week we have looked at: 
God as our GUIDE, knowing the trail that we are each on.
God as our GPS, knowing which way to go.
God as our TEACHER, knowing the materials for us to learn.
If you are going to allow God to teach you, you must have a humbleness to learn.  You want HIM to instruct YOU...not the other way around.  
You know that His teaching is the best and that everything He teaches is good and correct, never needing a new text book or revision.
You must follow His instructions, His word, His commands.
There will be tests, but because of His great teaching, you are able to pass the test with flying colors.
So, I don’t have to think back to my Grade School or High School years for my favorite teacher.  HE is already teaching me, today.
