He showed her things on the mountain, things in the sky, things in the pools and streams wherever they went. He did better than tell her about them; he made her see them, and then the things themselves told her.
(George MacDonald's, Sir Gibbie)
When I teach, I want to do better than simply tell my students about the things of God. I want to sit them down at the feet of Christ, himself.
More than speak of beauty and truth, I want them to taste of it. I want their thirst slaked by living water, their hunger satisfied by the bread of life.
Word of God, speak. Illumine our paths. Sword of the Spirit, penetrate. Judge the thoughts and attitudes of our hearts. Cloud of His presence, come down. Fill us with your glory.
Yes! Thank you, Breann.
