A Daily Devotion for Thursday, September 23

Acts 17: 30

In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent.

This reminds me a little bit of being in school. At first, the algebra problems are simple and then as time goes on they begin to require more and more concepts to be applied. You need to remember the older concepts to use along with the new to solve the problem. God forgives us for our past, for our simple-minded omissions we may have made before fully committing to Him. But now we know the Truth, and we must use this knowledge of God to live our lives in the best possibly way. We aren’t blamed for what we do not know, but we have been blessed with new understanding of God’s purpose. I must live accordingly.

Holy One, you have always been the very best teacher. You have given us new tools to face life and to be our very best. Amen
