Ouch! That Cut Hurts!

Hebrews 4:12
“For the word of God is quick and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”

Recently I was cutting potatoes with a knife. All of a sudden, I felt a piercing pain. I ran cold water over my thumb and there it was—a cut. I continued peeling the potatoes and cut my thumb again. I changed knives, put a band-aid on the cut and carried on. The cause? A knife that had been sharpened to the handle. When we read God’s Word it will pierce our thoughts and discern our intents, dividing soul and spirit. Now and again, when we feel that sharp pain of God’s Word, we should bellow out, “OUCH!” and praise the Lord.

PRAY TOGETHER: Get excited and pray about this new WNAC program year, Travel Light.
