Thank you for that. When I read your comment, I thought with a smile, "Maybe we should team up. I'll send my ramblings to Sherry, she'll condense them beautifully, and the readers will thank her no end!!" ;-)<br /><br />Re the post's content. As I put it to bed in the wee hours this morning, I realized that this text was indeed one I've read over and over through the years--and, once again, it felt as though I was looking at it for the first time. My pastor once said, "God's Spirit breathes through the Word. It's how Scripture moves from our heads to our hearts." I had experienced that very thing (for the nth time) without consciously realizing it!<br /><br />Thanks again, my friend! It's always such a joy to hear from you!<br /><br />Blessings,<br />TimTimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01271248501086241494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2722447614945782871.post-6530912509870428942011-03-10T12:02:08.066-06:002011-03-10T12:02:08.066-06:00Oh you captured this so well Tim.

God uses the imperfect words and thoughts of man in describing things holy, and to the mind that is willing to listen, opens us to new possibilities. It is the wonder of scripture that we can return to the same passages again and again, and never exhaust the wisdom offered, for each time, God meets us again, and says, "today this is what I would show you." Thanks for a lovely explanation.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15503657383929273550noreply@blogger.com
