… “how come this never registered before?” moments. Was reading in Acts 17 and of course the beautiful verse about the Bereans being more noble than the Thessalonians, and how they received the Word with readiness of mind, and searched the Scriptures daily, whether these things were so. But what struck me for the first time was the “therefore” at the start of verse 12 “Therefore many of them believed.” They believed because upon hearing the Gospel from the Apostles’ mouth, they checked out the message against the Old Testament Scriptures, and those Scriptures convinced that the Apostles were preaching them the truth! O Lord, give us a Berean heart to ask always: “Where is this written?” And then to believe the promises of Your holy Word! Amen.
