Later , Naaman changed his attitude and was healed.. { 2 Kings 5:9-14}
We face a similar challenge when we turn to the Bible.. We may learn that to be cured spiritually and morally, we need to follow a new way of life.. Will we have the humility to allow someone to teach us what we need to do ? Only thoses with a teachable atitude can enjoy an understanding of the Bible.
A fine attitude was displayed by a man in power under Candance, queen of the Ethiopians.. He was returning to Africa in his chariot when the disciple Philip ran alongside and approached him.. Philip asked the man if he understood what he was reading.. The offical was humble enough to reply: " How could I do so , unless someone guided me ?" Upon gaining an understanding of God's word, that man was baptized.
After that , " he " kept going on his way rejoicing." { Acts 8:27-39 }
Understanding the Bible can warm ones heart... As well as .. Prayer helps a person to gain the strength and the peace of mind that are essential when one is faced with anxieties.. { Philippians 4:6, 7 }
