Today's Scripture *December 31, 2009* New Years Eve *
Colossians 2:4
I am telling you this so no one will deceive you with well-crafted arguments.
Christian faith provides a growth track into knowledge of the truth, but along the way, how do we guard against being deceived by lies that are masquerading as 'well-crafted arguments"? If your growth track is too narrow, you become thickheaded and insular -- no one can teach you a thing. Before long, you cant teach anyone around you, for no one is listening. You are isolated. Love disappears from your life.
If your track is too wide and every idea is an exciting new possibility, you'll waste a lot of time just keeping on track and risk some dangerous detours.
The key is centering on Christ and grounding yourself in His Word:
-Learn daily about the Savior of the world.
-Study the Bible.
-Develop your theological knowledge.
-Stay humble and curious about the amazing complexity of the world God has made.
-Ask lots of questions about assumptions behind ideas new to you.
-Press toward wisdom.
-Pray for understanding.
God has given us minds for learning--never quit using yours!
Father, we thank You for this year that has just past!
And Lord, we pray for the coming new year ahead.
May we each grow more in Your Word, in Your wisdom, and Your understanding.
May we ask questions! May we remain humble and press toward greater understanding and knowledge of who You are and who we are in You.
May we never quit using the minds You have blessed us with for learning.
We thank You for Your Word and for the year that You have given us. May we use 2010 as a year of great growth in You.
In Jesus' Name, Amen
Have a safe and blessed New Years Eve!
It's been a blessing coming into your lives in 2009.
May 2010 bring 365 more visits each day and deeper understanding of the extraordinary Word of God.
In His Service,
April
