“I read this morning that another comment Adam made in Bible class Sunday morning, was to the effect: ‘We are not made for this world.’ My son's wisdom and zeal comfort me greatly. Do not mistake this to mean I am not suffering. Any father knows better. I am crying as I write this. But my son made these insights in Bible class, assembled with saints for worship, sang, prayed, and partook of the Lord's Supper…

Then he went home, and went out for a swim. Alone. In a faster current than usual. That means that he won't finish some of his earthly goals. He will not do his research experiment. He will not finish school. He will not begin his career. But these were side goals for Adam. His CHIEF goal was seeking the kingdom of God, and his righteousness. Rejoice in that for him. I thank God for Adam, and want to be more like him.”

Colossians 3:1-4 “He has had a different spirit and has followed Me fully.”

Caleb In The Bible? 13:1-2 – Spy out the land 13:6,16 – 12 spies, Caleb (of Judah). 13:27-28 – Return with good news 13:30 – Caleb stood up to lead the people 13:31-32a – The other 10 spies gave a bad report.

Caleb In The Bible? 14:1-2 – People grumbled and wouldn’t go. 14:6-10 – Brought the focus back to God! 14:28-29 – God very angry! 14:30,38 – God spared Caleb’s life…why? v24
