spiritually relevant
i am studying the book of Daniel right now and it amazes me how new things pop up in reading the same book over and over again that i never realized. one thing that beth moore says in the study is so good that i have to blog it…
“They (Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednedgo) learned the language, literature, and customs all right, but only God could use them in the midst of it. They read the language of their culture with the lens of God. Thereby, they became culturally relevant without becoming spiritually irrelevant. Against all odds, they retained a God-centered worldview so that ultimately the world could view their God. Amazing.”
this is my prayer for my family, my prayer for oak leaf, and my prayer for my kids. may we never be so culturally relevant but become spiritually irrelevant, nor may we become so “spirituality separated” that the world can not see our God.
awesome.
Just passing by.Btw, your website have great content!
