The Grands Letter

Dear Grands,

Mark 4:24, “And He was saying to them, ‘Take care what you listen to.’”

You probably know that I’m a stickler for taking biblical passages in

their contexts. Yet, sometimes things in Scripture just stand out in such

a way as to grab you attention despite the context. This is one of those

verses. ~ “Take care what you listen to” can have a lot of applications.

Well-meaning friends may often say things they believe to be true, but

they aren’t. Music may be the “in” thing for your age-group, but it may

also be feeding you a beat or a theme that is corrupt and dangerous.

Sometimes what you believe to be the Holy Spirit speaking to you just

might be Satan. Goodness! How are we to know? LIVE IN THE WORD

of GOD! Believe what the LORD says in that Word! Be exceedingly

prayerful! He will not allow you to go astray.

Love you all and pray for you daily,

Nana & Dado III
