I was busy digging through my old Bible
School files this evening, looking for some notes to send to my
sister. Looking through those files brought back many wonderful
memories of my 3rd year, but what concerned me as I
glanced through them was the realization that in truth we had only
skimmed the surface.
So how much time did we spend in
classes learning about God and His word? Well my 1st and
2nd year I did back to back but 3rd year a few
years later, but the days and hours? 3 lectures per night (roughly
45 minutes each), 5 nights per week, 4 normal school terms per year,
for 3 years! Yikes, that sure was a huge amount of time studying
God's word night after night.
Why do I raise all this though?
Bragging? No, never! I say all this because a wise lecturer once
told us that the more you learn about God the more you realize how
little you know. That means that even if we were able to spend every
waking moment learning about God and studying Him, we still would
never know everything there is to know about our awesome God!
Maybe you are asking then why should we
even bother trying? Well what I've learned over the years is that
God is in every waking moment. Every experience I have and feel is
part of my life with God, so in truth I know all that I need to know
for this very moment.
