All I Know Is…

“And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.” 1 Corinthians‬ ‭2:1-5‬ ‭KJV‬‬

I’ve been attempting to write lately. Not sure why I can’t complete my thought process. I’ve started devotional pieces and stopped mid way, unable to finish in the last couple of weeks.

This morning, I have the unction to write. I asked God, “What would you have me to say?” Then the scripture above came to mind…

For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

No, there’s no cute story, no poetic prose. I have nothing fancy to bring forth. That’s all I know for sure at this moment. It’s all I know to say and share.

I don’t have to jump through hoops, sing a song, entertain or scream. All I know at this time is to share Jesus’ life, death and resurrection.

It’s the only thing I know to share in this crazy time of seclusion and uncertainty during the pandemic. It’s the only thing I know to share in my time of grief after my brother’s recent death. It’s the only thing I know that personally prepares me for the battles I face. I feel compelled to share with you.

No other help I know…

Man’s wisdom fails. God’s wisdom stands! Man is fleeting and very fickle. Here one day and gone the next. God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. You can rely on Him always.

It’s as simple as that.

If you know He loves you, (John 3:16) then confess out your mouth and believe in your heart. (Romans 10:9) He’s then with you and you can seek Him for yourself. You’re now in relationship.

That’s all I know and I am sharing out of love with you. There’s nothing left to say.
