If…Then
Usually, this is something that programmers think about a lot as they write a program. Something like “If the user enters ‘NO’ then ring a bell or give an error message.” This “If…Then” phrase is what I will be teaching my students in the next few weeks.Interesting that this popped up in Dr Gil’s Devotion today. His was based on Proverbs 3:23 where Solomon starts out with “Then”. You can check it out HERE. According to him, Solomon is saying that “If and When” you have gotten wisdom, then you will have all these “other things.”This also works with where I was in I John 3 where John says (my translation) “we can’t see what we will be in the future, but when He gets here, we will be like Him if we keep practicing what He told us to do.” It also implies that “practice makes perfect.” We may not see immediate benefits, but over time, we will get better. If you jog, just remember how far you ran the first time you jogged. If you lift weights, how much can you “press” now compared to then. Kids get better at reading by reading, and the more they read, the better they get.Home run hitters practice hitting a lot. What are you practicing?
