Short but sweet (like me!)

Today I'm extremely thankful for God's word. I'm thankful that I'm not at the mercy of another man's opinion or teaching but I am able to study the Word for myself. I feel like our generation of believers (generally speaking) believes what another person tells them and does not study for themselves. This is terrifying to me. We can seriously never solely trust anybody's word except for God. Even scripturally-sound, Godly people in your life can't be taken at the word. EVERYTHING you hear needs to be ran through the full counsel of God. This may sound like a lot of work and IT IS. But it is so satisfying. God's word is TRUTH. No other man's opinion or teaching can replace or contradict it. If you are confused about something, READ SCRIPTURE. Not just read, but STUDY. God has really been teaching me this lately and I am SO thankful.
