God is so mindful of God and gave man indescribable gift. Unfortunately, one that does not know about God\u2019s available indescribable gift for man will not know to receive the gift of God. Gift of God is the evidence of honor in place for man. Unfortunately, <strong><em>\u201cA man who is in honor, yet does not understand, is like the beasts that perish.\u201d (Psalm 49:20)<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong>Indescribable gift of God is honor which is bestowed on man. Truly, one that knows to receive God\u2019s gift is set to live life for the glory of God. <strong><em>Psalm 8:4-6<\/em><\/strong> identified honor for man which is wrapped in God\u2019s gift, <strong><em>\u201cWhat is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You visit him? For You have made him a little lower than the angels, and You have crowned him with glory and honor. You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; you have put all things under his feet.\u201d<br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong>Do you know to embrace what God has given to man?<br \/>\nJesus is the indescribable gift of God for man. At a drawing well for water, Jesus spoke to Samaritan woman which was at the well to draw water, <strong><em>\u201c\u2026Jesus said to her, <\/em><\/strong><strong><em>\u201cGive Me a drink.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><strong><em><sup>\u00a0<\/sup>For His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.\u201d (John 4:7-8) <\/em><\/strong>The Samaritan woman\u2019s lack of not knowing Jesus responded with excuse by not giving to Jesus. She said to Jesus,<em> <strong>\u201c\u2026the woman of Samaria said to Him, \u201cHow is it that You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?\u201d For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.\u201d\u201d (John 4:9)<\/strong><\/em> Ignorance denied the Samaritan woman to know and give to receive from indescribable gift of God. Receiving gift from God is only provoked when giving self to God as a way living life. Jesus responded to the Samaritan\u2019s ignorance for not knowing Him as gift, <strong><em>\u201cIf you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, \u2018Give Me a drink,\u2019 you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><strong><em> (John 4:10) <\/em><\/strong>Jesus is the gift from God for man to give self and be able to receive from God. Many knows about the gift of God but do not know the gift of God. Get to know the gift of God for your life. Those who fully know the gift of God often launch into God\u2019s gift to engage the blessings of God\u2019s gift. Any man that accepts and launch into the gift of God takes a stand on a solid ground which can not become a victim of the wicked world. Without doubt, it is impossible to have accepted God\u2019s gift and live life as vessel of pity before world.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prayer for today: <\/strong><em>Ask God for the grace to know Him and not live life as a victim of lack of knowledge. <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FAITH CAPSULE: Knowing to receive from God is knowing to give self to God.
