When I was in college so long ago I remember a professor explaining how degrees from college work. As a novice student I thought that the more degrees one had the smarter he was in everything. However, I was told it is just the opposite. The higher the degree the more intricate knowledge one has in a small area of a topic. Now that I’m at the age I am I find myself knowing less and less. A big difference is that now I know this and I’m ok with it. When I was younger I thought I was stupid if I didn’t know. Now I realize just how true the statement was the professor told.

I wrote yesterday that I’m into Revelation in my Bible reading. There is an immense amount of this book that goes beyond my comprehension. As I was reading my portion this morning I realized again that all of this is going to come about, but what’s important for today is what I have written on the top of my prayer list: 1) Keep my eyes of Jesus; 2) Listen to His voice; 3) Obey His commands.

I don’t care as much about what one has learned from man’s institutions, what is truly important for daily living are these three items. They are my assignments each and every day.
