Today’s Thought “When Faith Is Nurtured” G. Ward

 

Judges 13:12-14  Manoah said, “Now when your words come to pass, what shall be the boy’s mode of life and his vocation?” So the angel of the Lord said to Manoah, “Let the woman pay attention to all that I said.  She should not eat anything that comes from the vine nor drink wine or strong drink, nor eat any unclean thing; let her observe all that I commanded.”

 

Faith is without the option in choosing destiny because it’s without control of next moments. Moreover it insists on an ongoing consultation (Matt.5:48) that directs generations after their demise and when lapse of the original plan is compromised my grandchildren lie in jeopardy (*cf. Judg.16:20) because they lack a similar discipline from a progenitor in faith (cf. Pr.1:24-29).
