Psalms 71:17

"O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: and hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works. " (When David became a man, even when he became a king, he still continued to be taught by God. With a crown on his head, he was still a scholar and disciple of the great God. Waving a scepter, he was still nothing but a child before a father when he thought of God. We find him, as a gray-headed man, still penning his psalms and being taught by God-perhaps in his last days learning most sorrowfully, staining his book with tears, discovering more of himself and more of the mercy of God, more of the power of temptation and more of the power of the sacrifice that puts away sin-more of the wanderings of his heart and more of that free Spirit Who upholds us and makes us walk in the ways of God. He was always being educated. A Christian has never finished his education till he stands before the golden throne of God).
