While teaching school I learned many things about how to make
sure students retain information. When
you are teaching you can be a surface teacher.
You can teach about your subject and it go in one ear and out the other
ear. But is this what we want the lesson
to do? Of course not, we want students
to absorb the material, retain it and use it.
When we teach something the right way we are teaching to the application
level. This is where students really
understand the material and know where and how to use the information.
As adults we are no difference than students in a classroom
when it comes to church. We can go to
church, sit in a pew and listen, but this doesn’t make us a better person. What makes us spiritual Christian people is
when we take what we have learned and apply it in life. It is when we do what we hear from scripture,
use the knowledge and put it to work. It
is then that we are truly faithful people.
So I question you today, are you just listening to God or
are you hearing Him? There is a
difference. Apply what He is surrounding
your heart with and peace with envelop you.
Have a great day!
