Today I had school testing. It's a booklet that contains numerous questions that 'test' your knowledge to see if you are really eligible to go on to the next grade. No pressure right? Lies! I mean come on.....you are expecting me to remember everything from this entire year? Oh and let me guess, I'm supposed to remember the things I learned back in 5th grade as well? No thank you.
How much do you remember from your years in school? Are you graduated? Maybe you are in a college? And then again you could be in highschool just like me, trying to contain information that I don't really plan on using in the future. Either way, I'm sure you remember something from spending countless hours learning. How much do you know about someone in your history book? Do you know how to do long division?
On another note, how much do you know about your friends? I could tell you just about anything you ask me about my best friends. What makes them smile? What makes them want to break down crying? I love to learn about my friends and my family. I'm sure you probably do too. But the next question hit me in the face....
Do I know what He loves and what He hates? Do I understand the things He would want me to do or not do? What are His visions, where does He want me to be? What are His names? What does He want to tell me? Do I know even a smidge about God like I do my friends or my school work? How well do I know my Father and my God, the one who created and formed me, the one who loves me with an all consuming fire? Who is God to you?Mathew 22:37- " Jesus replied: Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and the greatest commandment."
