The Teacher of God's Word
Poem by Dr. Wierwille The Teacher of God's Word The teacher of God's Word is one of a kind Who loves God with all his heart, soul, mind and strength; And who loves nothing more than to teach his Word. The teacher of God's word is an artist He works alone – reading – thinking – praying – studying – Believing to share his product with all the world. The teacher of God's word is a giver One who gives without the guarantee of being received; One who rejoices without knowing if anyone else will joy; One who corrects the irresponsible and careless; One who gives, gives, gives, and keeps on giving. The teacher of God’s Word lives only to teach To receive, to weigh, to discard, to develop, To learn, to treasure, to give, to motivate, To enlist, to stabilize, to encourage, to direct. And may I add, and to build equipped believers, ambassadors strong and wise Who teach because they love the teacher's task And find their richest prize In eyes that open, and in minds that ask. ~ Victor Paul Wierwille
