learning


"Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, MIND, and strength..."

I love to learn. New facts. Trivia. How things are made. Origins of words. Fresh jokes. (I know some of you think I don't have any...)

Keeping my mind sharp is a high priority for me. I do mindless things sometimes. (e.g. Halo, Napoleon Dynamite, chess) But USUALLY my 'spare time' is spent with a book, a crossword, Sudoku, or other brain-jogging activity.

Whether or not you truly enjoy stuff like that or not, if you are a follower of Jesus Christ, there is a calling and a joy in continuing to learn from Him. Exercise your gray matter today. Memorize a new Bible verse. Read one paragraph in Hebrews and work on understanding what's taught there. Expand your thinking about who to pray for today and pray for a variety of people, things, issues, leaders.

"Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, MIND, and strength..."
