How do you feel about the claim on the top of this cleaning product? ‘Shock, this product actually works!’ Do you think if you buy a product that does what it purports to do that you will be surprised and even shocked?
Not me – if I buy something that is meant to clean the shower, I do not feel amazed if it works. I may feel pleased, but that would be the extent of it. We have every right to expect things to be what they say they are.
Let’s take the Bible for example. Its pages are filled with God’s promises. We know that we can trust his word; we know that he will do what he has said he will do. There is no need for shock or astonishment – acknowledgement and gratitude will do.
Lord, you are a mighty God. Thank you for your word, for your authority and for your truthfulness. Amen
