My heart breaks that so many will live and die and never have read God’s Letter to them…
So many will have a God of their own understanding, because they never read his Autobiography - the Bible…Many will have knowledge of many things…many read for hours…even great books…but never desire to read about the God they claim to love…Wisdom tells us to seek God first - above all things…
But many read “how to” books, self-improvement books, philosophy, history, “secret” codes, and on and on…and presume they know God because they are “spiritual”.
How can one be “spiritual” without the Spirit of Truth?
Please - anybody who reads this - "lean not on your own understanding". Please determine today to read the Word of God. He has given you the command to "know Him"...and Jesus said that many will claim to know him, but He will say to them: "I never knew you..."
If you say you love somebody, do you never open their letters to you, or answer their phone calls? Do you, instead, turn on the TV or read a letter from a stranger instead?
Jesus said, "If you love me, you will obey me". And dear ones, He has commanded - not suggested - that we read His Word...
