And we do. Sometimes it may be something of great importance. Other times it may be trivial. Something simple. But either way, we learn something new every day. Or I think that we should anyway. The same can be said about our growth as Christians. As we move along in life, we should grow in our faith. We should learn something daily through Christ, that we can use to serve others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are different seasons that we go through. That can apply to every aspect of our lives. Personal. Career. Family. And Faith. As one season comes to an end, another one begins. Barbara and I have been through a few of those. Probably getting ready to go through one now as we get closer to becoming empty-nesters. It\u2019s very important for us to remember that as we go through the changes, that we continually ask God to help us along the way. To teach us. Because\u2026he can give us the greatest wisdom we will ever need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Bible, we read that Jesus tells us to learn from him. You can view it as a suggestion if you want to. But I would think you would be mistaken. It seems to me, he\u2019s \u201ctelling\u201d us to do so. So it\u2019s not a question whether or not we should. And it\u2019s good that we learn from Jesus. For a variety of reasons. Helping our souls. Strengthening us. Cleansing us. Building us. Helping us become better servants for him. Jesus is an example that we should all follow. The Example! If there comes a time that we believe we have it all figured out, we should probably re-examine ourselves. So now, let\u2019s conclude with something that I read: \u201cJesus does have it all figured out. He has our lives figured out. He has the trials that we are going to face figured out. He has the successes that we are going to enjoy figured out. And because he has it figured out, he has it all laid out for us.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There\u2019s a saying that we learn something new every day. And we do.
