God Make Teachers
~ Author Unknown~
God understood our thirst for knowledge,
and our need to be led by someone wiser;
He needed a heart of compassion,
of encouragement, and
patience;
Someone who would accept the challenge
regardless of the opposition;
Someone who could see potential
and believe in the best in others...
So He made Teachers.
