Ponder: To reflect or consider with thoroughness and care.

1. Spiritual poverty :

- Living your life knowing only 10 verses in the Bible. For some, it's John 3:16 and not much else.

-Listening to a sermon where Jesus is hardly mentioned. But you get 10 tips on how to be successful and how to stop worrying.

-Going to church and doing ministry without ever knowing the good news in the Gospel.

2. Found this observation from a blog :

Amazing isn't it? But for all its promise, we need to remember this :

"And though we have the technology for straightening roads and integrating information, it is beyond us to straighten and integrate human character. Man needs God for that."  - JI Packer
