Message
No! Mom, my teacher did not say so.” “Karen, is your teacher now wiser than me, your mother?” Karen’s mother asked. Children have great respect for their teachers. Most children seem to believer that the most intelligent and truthful persons on earth are their teachers. This may be because the teacher always has answers, whether wrong or right, to the child’s questions. Anyone will always be relieved to get someone who can give answer and clear his doubt. The teacher always helps.
Yet, your human teacher is not always with you. Beside this, she is very limited in knowledge and understanding. However, there is an all-knowing, ever-present Teacher. A Teacher Who always help when you are confused, frightened and know not what to say or do. With such a Teacher, you cannot miss the fact or go wrong. Jesus says that when you are threatened by the enemies of Christ, do not be afraid.
The all-powerful and all-wise and ever-present Teacher, the Holy Spirit, will teach you what to say. Therefore, whenever you are persecuted, afraid or confused, call Him in prayer. The Holy Ghost shall teach you what to say.
