I guess I must be a leaky vessel because I need to be refilled on a constant basis. It's a little cool here in central Illinois. I don't think it got much above the mid 60s today.
I thought I was the only "leaky vessel". I read one time about this man that wanted to know why his friend went to church so much. Did he remember all the messages? The man's response was no, but in his life time he had had 1000's of meals and couldn't remember them either, but they nourished him. Sermons nourished his soul. I thought that was very well stated. I need nourishment often.
I don't remember all of them either but I highlight and date them in my Bible. Then when I come across one while reading I'm reminded of what the pastor said. I also make notes in the margin. My poor old Bible is getting worn but by using whatever color hightlighter happens to be in my purse it sure is colorful! :lol:
