The joy of teaching……. the joy of learning……..

Over the next week and a half I will have several opportunities to teach, and learn.  I always find it amusing that participants at workshops and students have such a high expectation in teaching sessions and seldom realize how much we learn from them.  Learning truly is a two way street.  All participants enter with a full bag of experiences, the to success for everyone involved is dependent on how much we are willing to dump out of our bag onto the table.  If we go “all in” we can get the maximum benefit from the experience, everything we hold back, blocks off something we could learn.   If learning truly is to be a two way street, you can’t shut down one lane!

Our relationship with the Lord is much the same, we can’t sit back and wait for Him to do everything, of course He can, but I believe He wants us, “all in!”  What ever you do in life, have enough passion for it, to go all the way!
