Jesus' Preparation

So I heard this yesterday... and I really thought it was worth sharing. It is just kind of something to think about. Jesus took 30 years of his life to prepare for ministry. He spent 30 years learning God's laws, learning scripture, growing to know his identity as God the Son (because there had to be a time when he came to understand this, I don't think he always knew.. or maybe he did, but regardless), and just... getting himself ready. He went through 30 years of preparation for 3 years of ministry. He spent 10 TIMES more time preparing then his ministry, so I think that is just a thought about how important preparing our hearts for ministry is. Our role model spent 30 years... even in our lifespan thats like 30-40 percent of our lives preparing... just food for thought.
