You’ve heard what I said.
You saw what I did.
Isn’t it time to admit it, now?
I’ll tell you what time it is.
Time for me to tell you something you didn’t know.
These are secrets I’ve guarded for a long time.
ACTS 17:32 (NLT)
When they heard Paul speak about the resurrection of the dead, some laughed in contempt, but others said, “We want to hear more about this later.”
THE ESSENCE
For those who are starting to tune into God, there is always more to learn.
DAILY FODDER
Life-long learning is humble posturing. Only those who recognize how little they know are receptive to hearing something new from God.
PRAYER
Great God, thank you for revealing yourself throughout history, and for the Bible, as it contains a living record of what you've revealed. Forgive us for living as though we've mastered your message. Help us to become humble learners. There is so much more about you that you're eager to share as soon as I'm ready to know you more deeply. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER (ABP)
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
