Step into an enchanted world

It's been said to the youth:
"Never look at study as an obligation, but rather an opportunity to enter into the beautiful and marvelous world of knowledge." 

How much more lovely and mysteriously fantastic is this world in the spiritual realm!  The treasures gained from crying after God and studying His Word are invaluable and indescribably precious.  

"Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding; If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures; Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God." (Proverbs 2:3-5)

T.M. Anderson said, "We discover the eternal things of God in direct proportion to the measure of our seeking in prayer."  For Jesus in reference to prayer said, "He that seeketh findeth." (Luke 11:10)  "The things of God knoweth no man save the spirit of God." (1 Corinthians 2:11)  In other words, Mr. Anderson is saying that we do not discover the things of God by mere chance.

At the rate you are seeking, what of God will you discover?  
You may be enamored with the unfathomable God.  

"God, may our searching reflect the worth of what is hidden to the eyes of the world."        - Phillip

Phillip & Heather;

Thank you for your lovely blogs. More importantly, thank you for your commitment to expanding God's Kingdom! Your commitment and role model are great for "our" (it is actually GOD's WORK) holiness movement --especially our young people-- to observe & experience. Keep up the GREAT WORK...even if you think it is not what you want to see happening! God bless you! Forward & Upward...for HIS Kingdom! Steven Mowery

Thanks so much, Bro. Mowery, for your kind words. You and your wife are who should be thanked for all you are doing to send laborers on the foreign field. Giving one's life to GOD'S kingdom is so rewarding.
