"Deep Relationships: Knowing One Another"
Scripture Lessons: John 17: 20-26; Colossians 3: 12-15
How we wish we knew it all. However, since today we can bring almost any information right to our phone from seemingly anywhere in the world, we think we
do
know it all. If not, we can certainly find it all out! There is something else at work, however. Especially when it comes to navigating a life that has not gone the way we envisioned it. We are often looking in the wrong places for it and yet it is available each day: it is spiritual wisdom. He has revealed it in His Word, for there is a way of living revealed in who God is and what he is doing in our world that orients our hearts and focuses our minds for how life was meant to be lived.
