This week I went to Dinosaur Park for the first time in a while. What an amazing place that is! We live so nearby that I think we get a little numb to the grandeur of a place like that, which is quite tragic.
(As a fun little side-challenge, I would encourage you to, next time you go to Dinosaur Park, whether you’re hiking or camping or are there for the Sunrise Service, try to look at it through a first-timer’s eyes. It can completely change the way you look at the place!)
Sometimes we treat faith the same way we treat Dinosaur Park. “Been there, done that,” or “I’ve seen that before.” Or, worst of all, “There’s nothing special about it.”
The truth of the matter, for both of these things, is that these statements aren’t truth. Just like there are always new paths to explore and new sights to see at Dino Park, there are always more things to learn. More things to grow in. More ways we can seek after the heart of the Lord.
Faith isn’t a one-stop journey. It’s not something you can drink your fill of. You can always come back for more, come revel in the beauty of God, come and worship Him for who He is.
Don’t settle for the familiar. Don’t cast aside learning new things because you think you’ve seen it all.
Seek the Lord. Always.
