Meditation for the week:
God:
Knows all things therefore He cannot learn.
Knows all things instantly, therefore, He does not reason through matters.
Knows perfectly the present situation therefore He does not need advising.
Does not forget the past so he does not need reminding.
Is flawlessly aware of all future events; therefore, He does not need warning.
Cannot be mistaken; therefore, he does not need correcting.
God’s knowledge is infinite.
