Philippians 4:9 NASB "As for the things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you."I tried to be like him! Today's Word speaks to us about those who we have learned from, received from and seen and heard. Growing up with an incredible father, I tried to be just like him. I admired him and what he stood for, not when it was easy but even when it was hard. The most important thing he taught me was to spend time with God. Many nights on fishing trips, as I laid in bed, I would glance over and see him still up, reading God's Word. He was the type of man who not only read His Word but lived it. I pray that each of us reading this be that kind of a person. One who is taught by God's Word, receive His word and put it into practice. Jesus often said "I do what I see my Father do" - may that be our motto as we do this thing called life! peace, tom
