LOVE. How does love help me learn something I have struggled for years to learn? What Quick Learners Do that Struggling Learners Don'tFirst you must answer some questions to get a better understanding of what struggling learners do that quick learners don’t.
If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you are struggling with love. Hear me out. If you had love, you wouldn’t beat yourself up about a mistake. Edison didn’t complain that it took him 10,000 times to make a light bulb. He just kept trying until he got it right.

Learning is a journey. For some, learning comes naturally. For others, not so much. When you are stressed about learning something, it seems to take twice as long to learn it. Think about it. Think about a time that you were running late for an appointment. Didn’t it seem to take you twice as long to get everything done that you wanted to get done? You seemed to lose all of your stuff which just made matters worse. However, if you are patient and calm, learning comes much more naturally. Now think of a time in which you had plenty of time to get to an appointment. Things went so much smoother that you even hit every green light on the way there. Learning is much the same as getting ready for an appointment. The more time you waste worrying about the results, the less time you have to get yourself ready to learn. I Bet You Didn't Know This!The hardest part about struggling to learn isn’t overcoming it. It’s not?
Multiple Ways to Learn
If you have tried learning a skill one way and it doesn’t work, then try a different way. If you must try as many ways as you can to learn a skill. One or several may actually work and you have learned the skill better than most. Don't Listen to Satan
As you see others learning easily don’t be irritable about it. Don’t hope that something bad happens to someone because they are getting something that you aren’t yet. Be happy for them and pray for them. Satan likes to fill our heads with sinful thoughts and words because he doesn’t like it when something goes well for God’s people. Don’t listen to Satan. Learning is Fun NOT Shameful
If you cheat to find the answers, you have only learned to cheat instead of learning to love learning. Cheating is taking credit for someone else’s hard work. Satan loves to tell us to take the easy way out and not struggle our way through life. That way when you do cheat, you have to hide it for fear of being caught. Satan loves to separate us from people so that we can’t rejoice in the truth. The truth is that God’s way of learning is best and more enjoyable. Instead rejoice when you overcome your learning struggles by finding a strategy that works for you so that you can now teach someone else what you have learned. God brings you together with others to rejoice in your new found learning strategy. Love the Game, Don't Hurt the Player
The burden of learning struggles can be difficult, but the journey to overcome those learning struggles can be the most exciting. As you learn to work through your struggles with love, ultimate love, you become stronger, hope for the future more and believe in yourself. God is Love
No one can take your learning away from you. Once you learn it, it is yours for life. Loving yourself and God helps with the process. Perfection. God is the only one that we know is perfect. By knowing love and loving Him, we can overcome things we never thought were possible. I challenge you, this lent, to reflect on how you love yourself and God. Lent is a time of renewal and reflection. If you are not loving enough, you are longing for something that you can’t reach. God is waiting to help you on your journey. He can’t wait to show you what you CAN DO!
