Dear Friend,
It's been a while. I took some days off because I got busy and had a number of things on my heart that I am not used to. Many things are happening in this times and I hope you are aware of the times and season.
Last night, I began to think about how I use to be. I mean what my belief system looked like years ago. We have come a very long way in the faithfulness of God towards us and we must not forget what we looked like in the past.
I remember how I wouldn't look into the face of any lady when I just believed because I didn't want to be stained. I almost fell inside a deep gutter as a result of this. Somehow, I thank God that I didn't have so much audience to listen to my 'revs'.
My friend, don't make mockery of anyone that you perceive to have a lesser understanding of the word of God than you. Remember you have not always been like this too.
I thank my teachers who patiently listened to my 'foolish' questions, but didn't call me ignorant. They took it up, showed me scriptures and followed me up to make sure that I really understand.
Just like Paul would at times, call himself the chief of sinners, we must not forget that God took us from the dung and placed our feet among princes. Don't despise the little beginning of another. Remember God loves them just as much as He loves you.
Moreover, you're not yet there also. There are still some things that you don't know presently and your teachers are still believing God that you will understand. So be humble.
What is it that you have that you were not given?
Your Friend,
Gentle Giant
