LIFE IS A CLASSROOM

LIFE IS A CLASS ROOM
A  classroom is interactive room between the teacher and his students. it is a room where knowledge is being shared and intelligence sharpened.it is a learning's major tool.
Life is a classroom in which we have a central figure that is a also great teacher God. In a classroom you normally encounter 4 categories of people. The distracted ones, the lazy ones, the ones that knows everything and finally the studious ones. Let us discuss these four categories of people in a piece meal manner.
THE DISTRACTED ONES: These people are easily distracted from the instruction and teachings of the teacher with the activities of life. They are distracted with the situations and circumstances around them and do not focus on God the teacher. These are easy prey for the devil for they do not focus and look on God who has a solution to their problem and be healed. They are happy and cheerful when the economy is up and they are worried and gloomy when the economy is low. They are depressed when the doctor tells them they is no hope for them to get out of that sick bed and they are fed with the lies of the devil that they will soon die. They are seriously controlled by the activities and scenes around them. They can only find peace when they shift that focus on the activities around them and focus on the teacher. For in the teacher there is hope.
THE LAZY ONES: These category of people are with the teacher and attend his classes but do not do his assignments in order to pass. They are lazy in their prayer life, bible reading life and faith life causing their grades  to be constantly falling. They are an easy target for the devil because the protective hedge of healthy prayer, scriptural and faith life is broken life is broken and the enemy like a poisonous snake comes in and strikes them. Their ratings in the teacher's sight can only be improved if they shun laziness and do their assignments. Having a blissful and daily communion with the Master through a prayerful, bible reading and faith lifestyle.
THE ONES THAT BELIEVE THEY KNOW EVERYTHING THAT THE TEACHER IS TEACHING: These 3rd category of people believe they know more than the teacher and believe they can correct the teacher. They have read so many textbooks on the topic that the teacher is teaching and they feel they have the right to correct the teacher but they do not know they don't know that their knowledge is only superficial while the teacher's knowledge is in depth. They a times feel their is no need coming for lectures since they know what the teacher is actually teaching. You can find these group of people among the highly learned people especially people that occupy high religious position in some churches  and those who think reading the bible and other religious books  numerous times thinking that they are now at right standing with God. Such category of people should take heed lest they fall . They should swallow their pride and learn under the master. For no one better than He.
THE STUDIOUS ONES : These category of people are the teacher 's delight and are the ones that have high grades. They are eager to learn from him and does his assignments .They are the ones that when outsider's see  them, they always see the reflection of the master.
    Like I said earlier, life is a classroom and after reading this post, you will know the category you fall in and correct yourself if you feel you are in the wrong one.
