Intellectual pride is a scary thing. Our minds are so adaptive and clever that seeming miracles come from the Research and Development departments of companies all over the world. We get in trouble when we react to those advancements with a confident idea that we can understand anything. Then we believe the silly lie that we do or soon will understand everything.
Then we encounter a verse like this where God holds out on us. He tells us only He knows the day and hour and we have to just submit. It requires the humility of a child to trust that God will handle all the important stuff that we can’t handle.

Prayer prompt: Lord, I trust You. Help me to enjoy the humble and care-free life of a beloved child.
