I’m an ol’ prof… I know the frustration of having a student sitting right there in class, lively discussion, important principles, thinking perhaps they’re “getting it” – but inattentive … And then follow up with a review question, and have that “pre-occupied” student get nothing but a blank look on their face (even asking, “could you repeat the question?” … Maddening, if you’re committed to learning – students “getting it!
That’s how God must feel sometimes!
I read about it this morning during my time of “Coffee with the Lord”…
“You have become dull of hearing! Though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the basic principles of the oracles of God [God’s word – the key principles of God’s word]. You need milk, not solid food! Everyone who lives on milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness… But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.” (from Hebrews 5:11-14 ESV)
Oh may we “tune in” and “pay attention” to what God is saying to us through His word! In the words of my ol’ German Dad… “Son, pay attention! I’m not talking to hear my head roar!”
