Reflecting With God 6/18/2024

Thinking, praying, reading, studying the Bible – when we do these things, we are reflecting on the Word of God. To reflect is to contemplate and/or consider, and God wants us to deeply reflect on His Word so that we can better understand Him.

The love of Christ that surpasses knowledge. – Ephesians 3:19.

It may seem very strange that the apostle should bid us undertake to know a love which passes knowledge, and to seek after a peace which passes understanding. And yet there is no contradiction in these terms. When they were laying the Atlantic cable, they came to places they were unable to fathom. They would let down their fathoming line a thousand fathoms, a second thousand, a third, a fourth, a fifth, and even a sixth thousand fathoms, and the lead would swing clear; and, whenever in the ocean such a place is found, we call it unfathomable; that is, we express our knowledge of those depths by saying that we do not know. And so we express our highest knowledge of the love of God by saying that it passes full comprehension; and so we express our estimate of the peace of God, by saying that it passeth all understanding.
