Jeremiah 9:23 Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, Neither let the mighty man glory in his might, Let not the rich man glory in his riches: 24 But let him that glorieth glory in this, That he understandeth and knoweth me, That I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: For in these things I delight, saith the LORD.
I know that I am not to glory in my wisdom nor my strength and neither are you. I am to glory in understanding and knowing God. I will never understand Him, that is for sure. But I do know that what is said here about Him is true.
I have seen it in the Scriptures. I have seen it in my own personal life. He is a God of loving kindness. He does what is right. He is good.
He likes it when I understand that about Him. He likes it when I talk about these truths.
We brag about the wrong things that only make us look all the more foolish. We aren’t near as smart as we think we are. We are not as strong as we think we are. But we can know God through Jesus Christ and through His Word.
