But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
1 Peter 3:15
Yesterday I made a trip into town to specifically purchase more needles for my sewing machine. In my attempt at sewing some crafts this past week , I managed to break a couple of needles on my sewing machine, so, not only was I eager to restock my needle supply, I wanted to be able to ask the employees in this store why they thought my needles kept breaking? Am I doing something wrong? Using the wrong size needle? Imagine my surprise when I asked the question to whom I assumed was a 'Seasoned Sewer' and received this reply: "I don't know, I would Google it."
I left the store baffled! After all, I went directly to the Source of my dilemma! Shouldn't they have known the answer to my questions?
Christian, has someone asked you a question about your Lord and you struggled for an answer?
Do you know why you believe the way you believe?
If someone is going through a hard time, can you encourage them through Scripture?
I will be the first one to admit that I do not know all of the answers....but I do know where to go for all the answers, and I can use the tool God gave me to find the answers.
It's not Google!
It's The Bible, His Word.
Can you?
I want to be ready.....but that's just me!
"Help me, Lord, to be a student of your word, that I might be a better servant in your word."
