A Question Mark on a Face???

When I was in high school, my male teacher in a certain subject commented on my report card: "She always has a question mark on her face which shows that she craves for more wisdom. When I first read this, I feel elated that it is how my teacher perceived my facial expressions. True enough, I can affirm that when I was a student, I used to listen attentively to all that was being discussed by my teachers. I am an avid fan especially of my elementary and high school teachers, I think of them as an"all knowing" human being whose every word proves true or correct and so I treat them as my "role models". As I went through later years of my high school and during my college days, I began to realize that teachers are not perfect and they do not know everything under the sun. I started experiencing I may say, a few frustrations with some of them and I was truly disappointed because I used to put them on a pedestal during my younger years. Today, I still show love and concern to all the teachers of my children as their parent next to us and I am more understanding and lenient of their misgivings and I give high regard for them. During my middle years in college, I met the best teacher of all times - whose stories, teachings and lessons touched hearts, transformed lives and made a great difference in thousands of souls not only during his three-year teaching career but until now - His life, His ministry and His passion, He reveals to those who would humbly trust Him, and by faith, acknowledge Hims as Lord and Savior - He is no other than our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, whose very words are life and whose legacy as the greatest teacher of all lives on. I know I don't deserve to be His student but His death on the cross for me - erased all my mistakes, shreded all my failed test papers and issued me a 100% grade in all my subjects on my permanent card. Everyday, I hunger for His words, I long for His teachings and I always crave for His wisdom, He is the teacher who will never fail us because He passed from death to life!!! Glory!!! Halleluiah!!!
