Bible Note: Joe, God has indeed made himself known; it is right in front of our faces, surely enough. Perhaps though we are many of us not unlike the little boy who wondered whether he had a nose like other little boys, since he himself had never seen it. He lived long ago, before the invention of the mirror, and so one day he asked his mother, "Do I have a nose?" The mother led him to a quiet pool of water and invited him to look at his reflection. He, of course, then was able to see clearly that he indeed had a nose..... There are some who may need to be led to see what is in front of their faces, that God does make himself known. Perhaps that's part of our work as ambassadors. Soli Deo Gloria! --Hank |
