I was in that same reading group. Yet, God told me in my childlike confidence I would do more. The summer my uncle took me to a library was the summer I learned to read on my own, the summer my grandmother gave me my Bible, and the year I prayed on my knees for Jesus to forgive me for what he had to take on the cross for my sins. God formed us in His image to be who He needs when He calls us.
When I began reading this I thought I was reading about myself as I excelled as a classic underachiever. But I so enjoy reading God’s word each day and have a sense of emptiness should I miss my time with the Lord.
I really like “We sense a greater alignment with his will for our lives.” attributing it to “God’s pleasure and will for our lives. It helps us get there. 😃

Dale, my grandfather ran track at the University of Edinburgh with Eric Liddell. Just an interesting tidbit. Good message!
That’s amazing!!

Thank you for this Dale.
