“All things have been handed over to me by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him” (Matthew 11:27).
No one knows. There are many pretenders who think they know. We know what we have been told. Who can understand completely the marvels of the universe. Very intelligent people spend a lifetime and what do they know? Very little. This is not bad, it’s just the reality of human limits. Yes, seek knowledge, but do not approach God as if you are “knowing.” The wicked heart of deceit thinks that equality with God is something to be grasped.
Lord, I love learning, but let me learn with humility. Like a child seeing how things work, guide me to understand that I will only know a small bit. That is okay. Help me to be content with whatever portion You give me. Guide me in Your goodness and mercy to live this life looking to You, the One who is the Maker of all things. Thank You for the privilege of being introduced to Your Son
Lord Jesus, You came humbly, and You have walked among us. Lead me to walk with the same humility so that I may live the life You have given me. Guide me in Your goodness and mercy so that I may learn what You share from all knowledge, passing what I learn to others. Guide me Lord in the way You would have me go. May I not be puffed up with the knowledge You grant me but learn and share as I live life. Amen.
