At that very moment, Jesus overflowed with joy from the Holy Spirit and said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you’ve hidden these things from the wise and intelligent and shown them to babies. Indeed, Father, this brings you happiness. My Father has handed all things over to me. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, or who the Father is except the Son and anyone to whom the Son wants to reveal him.” Turning to the disciples, he said privately, “Happy are the eyes that see what you see. I assure you that many prophets and kings wanted to see what you see and hear what you hear, but they didn’t.” (Luke 10:21-24, CEB)
Jesus is overjoyed because those who think they got it didn’t and those who shouldn’t get it do.
Those who acknowledge they do not know and need help are the ones who really get what God is doing. When you are puffed up and assume you have been taught all the answers and know everything about God you will never actually get it until you step back and acknowledge you really don’t know and need help.
Make Jesus jump for joy and say you need help.
Loving People. Loving God.
