If I am called to be a student, how much time am I spending gaining knowledge from the book that holds the knowledge?
Am I doing His will? Do I have a grasp on the Truth of His will, or am I just guessing based on what “I think is right”?
Maybe I’m just behind the curve, but I find new areas in my life daily that need refinement and correction. I continue to be surprised by what my human reason would have thought was right as opposed to what scripture demonstrates is truth.
Proverbs 3:5
“Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not depend on your own understanding.”
