That's enough for now! ...

"That's enough for now!" (Acts 24:25) - This is what Felix said to Paul when Paul's words were getting too close for comfort. Felix didn't like what he was hearing, but he kept on talking to Paul - "At the same time he was hoping that Paul would offer him a bribe, so he sent for him frequently and talked with him" (Acts 24:26). Felix was still hearing what Paul was saying to him, but he had stopped listening to what God was saying to him. His real attitude to God and His Word was summed up in his words. "That's enough for now!" We need more than hearing what the preacher says. We hear what he says, and we say, "That's just his opinion. I can take it or leave it." We need more real listening to what God is saying to us - more saying, "This is the Word of the Lord."
