Often in life our satisfaction is never filled, we can never have enough money, we never feel happy with our mediocre job, we never have enough time in the day to do what we want, but there is one thing I know for sure, and that is that there is never enough time spent with God, and theres no limit to the amount of Him you can have. As Christians we should always want more, and I want to be never satisfied with the amount of God that I have, I always want to want more of Him.
“Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken. My salvation and my honor depend on God; he is my mighty rock, my refuge. Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge” (Psalm 62:5-8)
“My soul is consumed with longing for your laws at all times… My soul faints with longing for your salvation” (Psalm 119:20, 81)
As we grow older, we learn more. We seek more wisdom and knowledge, and we are curious. In Luke 2:40, it says "And the child (being Jesus) grew and became strong, filled with wisdom. And the favour of God was upon Him". This verse was in my church sermon this morning, and it hit me hard, because I thought that Jesus was born into the world knowing everything, God gave him everything he needed and he was as smart as could be, but realizing Jesus had things to learn about, and grow wisdom through, has me seeing that its okay to not know everything, and its okay to learn, and most of all, its its amazing to know Jesus was the same way.
We still have things to learn, and by grace through faith we will.
As we grow and learn in this life, may we realize that as it says in Philippians 2:15, to be lights in the world, in a twisted and crooked generation; that we could shine the light of God and learn wisdom through His leading, and His will.
If you may learn anything from this short blog post, let it be to never not want more of God, be hungry always for Him, follow His leading, and know that learning wisdom and growing more understanding is being just like Jesus. Provided it's in His will for your life, and you do it by His great name. And to be lights in this dark world.
God bless, Merry belated Christmas!
