Lessons from a Kindergarten Class

 Teaching Kindergarten this year has really taught me a lot about the love Christ has for me. It is amazing what a group of five and six year olds can teach you. This has been a year full of ups and downs, but the Lord as taught me much every step of the way. I do have my hands full of students who tend to hear, but not listen very well to the instruction that they are given. I can repeat myself over and over again at times and yet my class can still disobey.
I see first of all that I can be a lot like my students. Jesus tells me and teaches me things over and over again in His Word, but I times I tend to hear it or read it but not listen and apply it to my life.
Second, I can keep on doing what is wrong and disappoint my Heavenly Father but with the love Christ has for me he never gives up and never fails me. He continues to be that loving Father. This is how I see myself as a teacher. My students can misbehave and disappoint me a times but no matter what I love them.
I hope someday that I can be like the Master Teacher in my own life and be as loving, and patient as Christ is to me. I have to admit I still have a long ways to go and a lot to learn. I look forward with anticipation to the upcoming lessons God has in store for me today, tomorrow, and in the future
