The student becomes the teacher

Over the last five weeks, I have been teaching my first class at a local university. Little did I know that I would be learning even more than the students would. I prepared and prepared as best I could with very little training. From the very start, my students began to teach me about attention to detail. As much time as we spend and think we have things covered, we can still fall short.

John 1:8 (NLT): Watch out that you do not lose what we have worked so hard to achieve. Be diligent so that you receive your full reward.

We can sometimes take shortcuts and hope for the best when we know deep in our hearts that we didn’t truly prepare for the trials of life. By doing this, we risk losing everything we have worked for and have achieved. Our reputations can be damaged and trust will have to be earned again. Spending more time is an investment in ourselves. The more time you spend, the more valuable you will become to others.

--God’s best
