I Have Learned

Greetings to all; on this "grateful" Thursday, let us pause and reflect on the lessons learned that have given us hope thus far.

Despite things we can and should know, we often rush through the seasons of life, not understanding that the things we are experiencing are lessons that help build our character and give us hope for what is to come. Thankfully, we can grow in real knowledge.

Romans 5:3–5 (KJV 1900)

3 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;

4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope:

5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost given unto us.

Lesson: Knowledge and experience have real value. When we apply what we have learned, it turns into wisdom. We recognize and see our growth in what we have learned when we glorify God in every detail of life.
