Christian Teachers as Under-Shepherds

CHRISTIAN teachers are under-shepherds. As such they may have the enjoyment of the Chief Shepherd in seeing peace and happiness brought into the lives of their pupils. As did he, so will they, live a life of self-sacrifice and self-denial, gladly turning from every earthly enticement, choosing rather a life of weary labor and toil if possible, that thereby they may help some to gain life eternal. Such under-shepherds will certainly hear the “Well done, thou good and faithful servant” from the lips of the Chief Shepherd, and from him they will receive the crown of everlasting life, and with him they may behold the eternal joy of those for whom they have labored.
