Life in the spirit (10)

Knowing that God is a gradualist, I’d like you to now think of the best teacher you have ever had.



Now imagine that this teacher has undergone hyper-insight-teacher-development and has run advanced, high-tech tests on you and now has incredible insight into how you learn best, knowing exactly what type of learning experience will work best for you, precisely when you are physiologically and psychologically ready to absorb it, and knows exactly how to present it to you for your optimum learning. 
God is that teacher. I previously referred to God as the “uber-teacher.”[No, I’m not saying that God teaches how to drive for Uber.]Uber is a German word “denoting a supremeexample of a particular kind of person or thing.” 
Not surprisingly, it is often the case that the learning experience will not be how or what we think it ought to be.  We may even feel that we have been blindsided, challenged beyond our capacity, or not given the tools we need.  But here the Father really does Know Best.  
I will only add that He welcomes your feedback in whatever tone of voice you feel is appropriate. Mindful, that He will still deal with us as He knows is “supremely” best and uniquely appropriate.
In Christ, Ken.
