This image captures multiple activities at once. There is a hot air balloon, an airplane, and a farmhouse. If we think about the activities in our own lives, there are many mundane things and probably some interesting activities. Each person is unique and has different interests.
I searched for activity and active in the Bible, and this verse is interesting.
For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
Hebrews 4:12
It is fascinating to think about the word of God being alive and active. While food for serious thought, it is cause for gladness that we have a reference that sheds light on bad things in the world.
Today on Thanksgiving, there are sobering things, and many things we can be glad for. I am thankful that we can be active and do things that are interesting. I’m thankful that we have a guide in the Bible that helps us. Let’s use the active word of God to its best advantage as we go forward.
