The Teacher

“You call me ‘Teacher and Lord,’ and rightly so, for that is what I am.” John 13:13

My heart is full of reverence when I think of Jesus as my Teacher. If He’s my Teacher then that makes me His student. As a retired elementary teacher for 30 years I remember the love I had for my students. But my love was like a grain of sand in comparison to the love Jesus has for His students. I’m so glad Jesus never grows tired of repeating instructions. He gives tests, but never with the intention of seeing you fail. He never gets in a hurry because learning and growing is a lifetime process. His goal is the very best for you because He sure loves His students.

  1. Judy, as a retired elementary teacher I sure did like your writing today. I never did connect in such a personal way that Jesus is my teacher. I can certainly relate to all your examples. I’m going to write down your message in my journal so I can reread it and be blessed again and again by your writing. Thank you so much for sharing your good and loving thoughts. Jan🍎
