On God's Word*

A thought – perhaps God’s word is more comparable to food than to knowledge.


Knowledge, once you ‘know’ it, is yours, filed away in the data banks of the mind.

But food – that must continuously be consumed in order to live.

Thus understood, God’s word is our nourishment, not our encyclopedia.
