Just came across these 2 verses in my reading this morning. I’m including them in English & Slovak - just in case you decide you want to start to learn Slovak!
*****************
“This is what the LORD says:Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls. But you said, 'We will not walk in it.”
“Takto hovorí Hospodin: Postojte na cestách a vidzte a pýtajte sa po chodníkoch veku, ktorá je tá dobrá cesta, a iďte po nej a tak najdite pokoj svojej duši! Ale oni povedali: Nepojdeme!”
Jeremiah 6:16 - Jeremiah 6:16 (ROH)
*****************
“This is what the LORD says:Let not the wise man boast of his wisdom or the strong man boast of his strength or the rich man boast of his riches, 24 but let him who boasts boast about this: that he understands and knows me, that I am the LORD, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight, declares the LORD.”
“Takto hovorí Hospodin: Nech sa nechváli múdry svojou múdrosťou, ani nech sa nechváli udatný muž silný svojou silou, nech sa nechváli bohatý svojím bohatstvom!”
Jeremiah 9:23 - Jeremiah 9:23 (ROH)
*****************
I was just reminded that newer is not always better. Even the Lord confirms that. He tells us to ask for the ancient paths - the good way - and then when we find it to walk in it. And we’ll find rest for our souls in it! Wow! What are we doing trying to re-invent the wheel?
God is good!
