Do we Lean on our own Understanding?

Richard Forbes
Christian, Daily Devotional, God’s Understanding

How do we come to understand the Word of God, and His will for us? Is it by our own intellect, and through diligent study that we are able to piece it together like a puzzle? Do we somehow find the hidden key within it that allows everything to fall into place so that we can stand back from it and marvel at our ingenuity? No, we understand with our hearts, and not our minds. Our minds barely scratch the surface, but our hearts use the keys of our spirits like a scalpel.

Diversity, the Revelation Song, and Following Jesus

Richard Forbes
Christian , Daily Devotional, Our Diverse Faith

So often we think that there is but one way that we are called, and that God has a single process for leading all of us. We somehow get in our minds that there is but one way to serve God too, and that if we don’t fit into the biblical walk exhibited by one of the twelve apostles then we are not correct in our faith. In fact, we are all unique in our relationship with the Lord through Jesus Christ.
