Yesterday, we conducted our meeting at the Embassy Suites in San Rafael. This was truly a beautiful place for our meeting. My family and I stayed over Saturday night and used a conference room connected to our room.
6 were in attendance as we talked about knowing Jesus.
Jeremiah 9:23-24 says, "Let not the wise man boast of his wisdom, or the strong man boast of his strength, or the rich man boast of his riches, but let him who boasts boast about this: that he understands and KNOWS Me, that I am the LORD…"
If we possess anything in this life, we need to possess a knowledge of God. When we have an intimate relationship with Him, we can then introduce Him to others. During our lesson we talked about a rod used to stoke a fire. If you place the rod into the fire and leave it there long enough, it will become red hot—showing that the heat of the fire has transformed it. Then, whatever you touch with the rod will feel the heat of the fire. In much the same way, if you have been with Christ long enough and truly are getting to know Him—His influence is sure to rub off on you. Those who come in contact with you will feel Christ’s love and divine presence through you—because you have been with Jesus.”
