But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. Luke 2:19 In today's episode we will learn principles of pondering from the lives of Joseph (the dreaming son of Jacob) and Mary (the virgin mother of Jesus). I'll share a key principle of dream analysis, teach what I've learned about Virgo and her decans, cover how these things point to Christ and explain how we can apply this knowledge to our lives today. Join me as we set out to ponder with purpose the goodness of God. A season of suffering is a small assignment when compared to the reward. Rather than begrudge your problem, explore it. Ponder it. And most of all, use it. Use it to the glory of God. ~Max Lucado Scriptures quoted today include:
