The Bible is the most tangible form of communication between God and man.
It is the word of God, it teaches, encourages, guides, consoles and is filled with promises. Truly a powerful book.
So, what does the Bible mean to you? How do you use the Bible in your daily life? Do you think the Bible is still relevant in all spheres of society today?
We are all in search of something.
We seek love, answers, meaning; a purpose for our lives. The day we meet our Lord Jesus, he fulfils all of our needs. When we find that place where we belong, where we are to be used by God, then it all makes sense. It just feels right.
That is also why it is so frustrating and disappointing when our plans don’t succeed, but even through our perceived failings, God reveals his incredible character and wisdom.
This is but one of the lessons that Dries Fourie (back, third from left) learnt as he responded to his calling from God.
We often allow our interests and passions to distract us from our relationship with God. We are so consumed with our own goals and mission that we forget and, maybe, don't even care that it is ultimately a God-given gift. A gift from a God who, before we were born, placed those talents and desires in our hearts and hands.
"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." Psalm 139:13-14
