Our Teacher

This is what the LORD says - your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:  "I am the LORD your God, who teaches you what is best for you, who directs you in the way you should go. If only you had paid attention to my commands, your peace would have been like a river, your righteousness like the waves of the sea."  Isaiah 48:17,18

Being a teacher, it helps me to know that God is a teacher, too.  I know how much I want my students to learn, and God wants me to learn even more. The result is peace and righteousness.  I know  that to learn I must be in His Word, not just reading it, but meditating on it throughout the day.  It's not easy, but I want to be not just a student, but a good student.  Good students are not necessarily the smartest, but try hard and want to do well, both to learn and to please their teacher.  May I do that same.
