SEARCH OUT SOMETHING
Text: “It is the glory of God to conceal athing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.” (Proverbs 25:2)A proverb says, ‘curiosity killed the cat’. But note that if not for curiosity, there would be no United States of America. There would be no electricity, motor cars, telephones, computers and aeroplanes. It was the zeal of men like Christopher Columbus, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Edison and Alexander
Graham Bell that made them possible.
Curiosity is the same word as inquisitiveness , interest, prying, or questioning. We all possess it as children and like to explore our environments. That means you too can search out something. Unfortunately, as you grow older, this zeal is subdued by many things, including unhelpful experiences and discouragements by friends and family members. You need to
renew your curiosity. Learn how to develop keen interest in yourself and environment.
According to Ken Keyes, “Let everyone and everything around you be your teacher.” Inquisitiveness makes your mind active instead of being passive; observant of new ideas, and opens up new worlds and possibilities. It brings excitement into your life, leads to new discoveries makes you fruitful and useful.
Challenge: Curiosity can open new world of possibilities to you.
Prayer: O God, keep my mind active.
