THE LEARNING NEVER STOPS<br />

“Blessed are You, O Lord, teach me Your statutes.” (Ps 118/119: 12)<br />

If I make at least a small effort to keep my focus on God, to listen deeply,<br />

and to see, deeply, what He is revealing to me today, then I continue to<br />

learn; I remain teachable. “But blessed are your eyes because they see,<br />

and your ears because they hear,” Christ says to His followers (Mt 13: 16).<br />

I should note that He had harsh words not for the “unworthy,” but for the<br />

unteachable.<br />

Today might bring unexpected circumstances, unexpected or unpleasant<br />

behavior (either my own or of others). How will I respond to what comes<br />

my way today? Let me remember that Christ is calling me to keep my<br />

eyes and ears open, according to His word. I can let His grace into every<br />

situation, so that I learn more about His agenda today, rather than impose<br />

my own. The learning never stops, if I remain teachable.<br />
