Whether teaching my daughter or my students, I want them to have experiences that help them learn. I want them to hear the lessons, to see what I am teaching, and to remember the important ideas. As God's children, we, too, must focus on paying attention and learning from Him!
God is continually providing lessons for us. He wants to teach us more about Himself and His will in our lives. He has given us His Word in the Bible. He provides us with examples and stories that can help us learn. He speaks to us and allows us to speak to Him through prayer. We can also find mentors that will accompany us on our spiritual journeys. In all these ways, we can learn, but we need to pay attention to hear with our ears, to see with our eyes, and then store our learning in our hearts!
Hear the lessons of God. See what He is teaching you. Store all of it in your heart!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for Your willingness to teach me. Help me to keep the learning in my heart and to understand and apply Your lessons. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
