My precious Student:-

You have come to me, and from me, legitimately. May I not occasionally call you mine? Class teachingAs Written:Class=teaching is not all that constitutes a student, mine. You were mine under the fig treeJohn 1:47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! John 1:48 Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee. John 1:49 Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel. John 1:50 Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these. . Dear Prof. McKenzie was at his netMatt 4:21 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them. Matt 4:22 And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him. mending it when Christ called him to me. Now dear ones, I have not the time to see you and talk face to face as I would love to. But of this rest assured that Christ will tell me when to speak through my pen to you both

With love mother
