| “O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments, and His ways past finding out!” (Romans 11:33). |
| Here we are at the end of another year, and at the final meditation for our readings. It has been our prayer that all of those reading through these thoughts for the year will have found themselves to have been stretched, and to have grown a few inches (spiritually speaking). There is so much in God’s Word, and we have hardly scratched the surface of all the wonderful thoughts, plans and love-messages God has tucked throughout His book. |
| We cannot begin to absorb all these lovely gems He has put in the Bible for us all at once. There is an encouraging verse in Isaiah 28:10. It reads like this, “ … line upon line; here a little, and there a little.” |
| So as we read God’s Word, lovely and instructive thoughts come to us bit by bit. The Holy Spirit in us helps us to understand what God is teaching us from the part we are reading. It is a patient step by step learning process. And you will find that the more you read, the more desire you have to read. |
| When you read any other book, you come to the end and put it on the shelf, having absorbed the contents of the story, or the history in it. But with the Bible you will find that each additional time you read it, you will find something fresh and wonderful that you had not noticed before. How can that be? It is because the Bible it is an inspired book, written by God Himself. He wants to communicate with you and me! He wants to reveal who He is, and what He has done. He wishes to be your Guide and your Friend. Don’t put His special letter away in a drawer and forget about it. |
| May it be part of your everyday life, and may you “grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3:18). |
