Straining At Gnats But Swallowing Camels


Wisdom: Jesus said, we strain at gnats but swallow camels. See Matthew 23:24

Sometimes it's more easy to accept the big things that we know we can't digest properly but act pompously about. Like we are all that. We like big things. We desire the big and the grand. The big revelations when we can't get the basics! But it's out of order. We should begin first things first. Despise not small beginnings. Learn the small things. Understand the ant and her ways. Figure out the gnat, so you can understand the camel later. Study the ABC's first, then you will have the basic building blocks that support any foundation--and the structure. The gnats are the foundations upon which the camel revelations can stand.
-A conversation with my friend Hope K sparked this thought! God is releasing His saints in greater measure!! Glory~! #lessonsinthebootcamposilence

  1. Revelation is really a simple matter, though the counsel & wisdom of God is so complex. The closer we get to God & seek Him in prayer about any matter, the greater clarity we receive on the subject & the wisdom of God begins to make sense. He brings us up to the place where He is so we can gain instruction from His sight position...to the level of instruction He gives us.
