1 Corinthians 1:27
“God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and He has chosen the weak things of the world to shame things which are mighty.“
If you ever feel that you are not smart enough, or popular enough, or from the right kind of family to do God’s work in an effective manner, read today’s Scripture passage once again. Who does God choose? The foolish and the weak — that describes me!
Jesus did not teach on a theological level, yet His clear and simple teaching has confounded doctors of theology across the centuries. He was the creator of the world, yet His ministry was extremely simple.
He did not intend for people to be mentally brilliant in order to know Him personally. It was and always has been this simple: Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so.
We should never demean one another with words that insult. Rather, we should always encourage each other with words that convey love and respect! Look for the good in others and always encourage others by telling them you notice what they are doing.
Blessings dear hearts! Walk with God today and be a blessing!
