Thought for the week

As a child I was fascinated by my mother’s Russian Doll. Inside it was another doll, and inside that another, and so on. I knew there were five of them, but it was in opening them up that I experienced the wonder of these nested dolls.

The Bible is a bit like that. I know it contains amazing messages for me, but it is in opening it up and delving deeper that I experience the wonders of God’s communication with me. And, unlike the Russian Dolls, there is no end to the hidden insights waiting to be found.
