Birds sing the most beautiful songs. It is so amazing the diversity of creation. The sound of the wind and waves. The songs of the small birds. The laughter of children.
Our lives are so fleeting. One moment we are here and the next we are gone.
So why do we do what is wrong? It should not be: Do what ever you want for soon you will be gone.
For every moment we have is a blessing from God. So show God how thankful we are. Live a life where God is upon our hearts and loving our neighbors is in our actions.
“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the discernment of the discerning I will thwart.”
I teach problem solving and logic a lot. And I always want my students to know what they think and why. Why do they believe what they believe. Why do they have their opinions. If they can defend them. To know when to doubt what they are being told. To know when someone else is manipulating them with words.
The wisdom of man has become an idol for us today. We listen and obey what "a better" has told us. We don't inform ourselves of the truth, because we are told what it is.
But, the wisdom of God destroys our faith in our own hands. And in the faith in the hands of man.
