Then the way you live will always honor and please the Lord, and your lives will produce every kind of good fruit. All the while, you will grow as you learn to know God better and better.
Colossians 1:10 NLT
A lot of people say that experience is the best teacher. I agree to a degree. Why go through it if you don’t have to? If you take the time to know God, then some life experience you won’t have to go through. Just think about all the times you should have went right instead of left. Or the times you should have waited. Or my personal favorite, the time you should have left but didnt. Those alone are experiences that you may not have had to learn the hard way by listening to Gods voice instead of getting advice for your friends or family. Your lifes decisions start with his voice.
HERE IT IS…
Just as the teacher has to teach how to take a test, we also teach ourselves how to just pass test, seemingly get by. When in fact we need to actually learn more about what we are doing so that we can grow. We have to learn about what our teacher (God), is showing us and live it daily, rather than trying to learn how to just get by. Learn how to please God and watch how your life changes.
