LISTEN NOW! John and Pat discuss the importance and the extreme value in seeking understanding. What we don’t understand will often time cost us in so many ways. They share how often times we miss the magnitude of a moment or fail to appreciate the value of something or someone simply because we lack understanding. Have you ever met someone and at the time you didn’t think much of it but only to find out later that the person you met was significant person in your community or the Kingdom of God because of their labors and contributions. Or have you ever heard of a story or even experience yourself buying a very expensive rare antique or item at a garage sale for pennies only to later find out that it was extremely valuable.
There is nothing like realizing after the fact that you missed or failed to recognize something. Proverbs 4:7 says “ Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Though it cost you all you have get understanding.” It was there right in front of you the whole time. It is so important to understand that we are just passing through this place called earth and our existence as we know it today will one day be no more. They continue to discuss how they have heard it said that you don’t realize what you have until you lose it. They further discuss why does that have to be our reality. The truth is that it doesn’t if we apply the wisdom of God to our lives. We must never allow things that matter least to compromise the things that matter the most in our lives. That’s why it’s important to know your values. You will truly maximize life and alleviate many regrets people have when its all over . We need to know God. It’s only when we have an abiding relationship with Jesus that we can begin to fully discern and seek understanding to determine our values the things that matter most. We must know and understand the extreme value we have to God and that we are His treasured possession when have this understanding it will totally revolutionize how we relate to God and truly empower us enjoy and celebrate our relationship with our heavenly Father.
