The Lord commands us to learn and discover all we can in this life. There's nothing wrong with wanting to know the mysteries of outer space or the latent powers of the mind. The problem comes when we desire to use that knowledge for our own gratification, rather than to build the kingdom of God. Chris Heimerdinger
About This Quote

The Lord commands us to learn and discover all we can in this life. There is nothing wrong with wanting to know the mysteries of outer space or the latent powers of the mind. The problem comes when we desire to use that knowledge for our own gratification, rather than to build the kingdom of God. We must keep in mind that we gain knowledge by studying and learning.

This study and learning is how we progress in this life. We are constantly being tested, whether it be through our relationships with others, tests in school, or just daily struggles that come our way. We must strive to stay positive no matter what happens in our lives because there are always glimmers of light to help guide us along the way.
