The readings for this week are either 2 Samuel 18:5-9, 15, 31-33 and Psalm 130, or 1 Kings 19:4-8 and Psalm 34:1-8, Ephesians 4:25-5:2, John 6:35, 41-51.  This week we look at how at times we can't see the whole picture and we have to be okay when we guess wrong.  We have been able to see that in Taxification of Plants and Animals and we need to be okay with the same thing in our faith.  Allowing ourselves to not know everything, makes it easier for our faith to grow. Thanks again for taking the time out to listen to this and I hope this is a tool that you find useful.Remember to answer this week's question:Where are you being Challenged? #faithandscipodcast
