Evening: Psalms 119:73-96; Matthew 13:53-58
A
famous speaker whom we brought over from England joked that ‘experts’
from abroad are more highly respected than locals. Jesus said this
about ‘prophets’. Prophets are truth-tellers. It’s hard to hear the
truth from someone you know. When your sister shares something amazing
she has discovered, you think, “I’ve been trying to tell you that for
years!” Truth, like everything else, is available locally. But pride
can stop my ears when I hear truth from my brother, or my neighbour,
especially if it’s the truth about me. I mean, how could he be smarter
or wiser than I am!?
