People think they should know themselves easily and so do not seek to penetrate the hidden depths of their soul. However, in today’s text (Lam 3:40: Let us test and examine our ways, and return to the LORD!) and in many other places in the Bible, we are urgently called upon to learn to know ourselves. That we are so often implored to do this suggests that it is not at all as easy to accomplish as we may think.—C. F. W. Walther,
God Grant It!, p. 725, 726
