Jeremiah is busy discovering whatever he can, whenever he has the energy and time. I appreciate being encouraged by his diligence and intrigue. The simplest of things - a ring of colorful toys, a wheel on a tricycle - is new and thrilling. He turns it upside-down and all around, he bites it (much to my dismay at times), he throws it, he shakes it, he sets it down and comes back again and again. His discovering process can last a minute or last hours or days.
With the things of the LORD, we are exhorted to do the same. We are to take things of the Kingdom and turn them upside-down and all around, bite them, chew on them, discuss them, put them down and come back again and again. Things of God should be exciting and desirous. When and if they are not, we are to ask ourselves why.
As children, God tells us to come to him - the faith of a child. Child-like faith looks at life with thrill and awe and says, "I want to know all about this, and I will not give up until I do."
May God give you all courage, vision, and hope. A new day is set before you. Embrace God's mercy and start again. I plead the blood of Jesus over every reader and ask for the Holy Spirit to come and move mightily.
“I, Wisdom, live together with good judgment.
I know where to discover knowledge and discernment." Proverbs 8:12
"It is God's privilege to conceal things
and the king's privilege to discover them." Proverbs 25:2
