WHAT YOU DON’T KNOW

363/365 Luke 2:33 And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him. It is interesting to know that Mary and Joseph, who had received specific details about who Jesus would be from an angelic source, were oblivious of the revelation Simeon brought.

A TWO-FOLD CORD

362/365 Matthew  2:13 And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.

THE KIND OF KNOWLEDGE TO PURSUE

337/365 Creating good recipes for any food item takes time and often multiple repetitions to perfect. However, there is a shortcut to apply when one wants to create 'a recipe for disaster'.

237/365 Matthew 24:43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming,(A) he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. We get letters every now and then in the post or via email, whether they are statements... Continue Reading →

HOW DO YOU KNOW ME?

236/365 John 1:48 How do you know me?” Nathanael asked.
