I was recently at a meeting that turned to discussing teacher professional development. One person noted that teachers are life-long learners. This reminded me of the quote from Maya Angelou, who said, "Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better." While teachers need to continue learning, they are not the only ones that can learn and then do better!
We all need to continue learning. Throughout our spiritual journey, we have opportunities to learn, to become closer to God, and to grow in grace and knowledge. By following the example of our Savior, we can learn about living for God. Through acceptance of our Savior, we can learn about God's grace, mercy, and love. As we continue to learn, we can then do better as we act to grow God's Kingdom!
Be a life-long learner that learns to do better for the Kingdom of God!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for teaching me and helping me to continue to learn. Help me to use my learning for the growth of Your Kingdom. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
