We learn many things throughout our lives. Sometimes what we learn isn't 100% correct. I sometimes see this incorrect learning in the misconceptions of my students. These misconceptions may have originated in a lack of teacher understanding or in student misinterpretation of what the teacher was saying. In our lives, we need to be sure we have sound teachers and we are correctly interpreting the lessons we both give and receive!
God teaches us in many ways. Through reading His Word, following the examples He provides, listening to leaders in our faith, and talking to God through prayer, we can develop our understanding of God, our faith in Him, and the expectations of His followers. Once we have learned lessons, we need to be sure these lessons really are sound. We need to be sure we do not have and are not spreading misconceptions from God's teaching. As we share God with others, we need to be sure we are allowing God to guide us in His sound doctrine!
Learn from God and avoid misconceptions as you teach others about Him!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for teaching me. Help me to know Your lessons and to share them with others without misconceptions. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
