We now understand how little we understand. -Jerome Powell- |
It’s hard to determine and differentiate the difference between confusion of thought and corruption of action. Given the Federal Reserve Board’s lack of understanding of inflation, the confusion of the CDC regarding the origin of the Chinese Covid virus, or the president’s inability to define recession, not to mention the newly appointed Supreme Court justice’s inability to define what a woman is, all of this causes me to wonder: Why do people in such exalted roles of leadership understand so little? It seems Proverbs 18 is correct: Whoever separates himself seeks his own desire, He quarrels against all sound wisdom. A fool does not delight in understanding, but only in revealing his own mind. Proverbs 18:1-2 As Christians we do not need to be confused in our thinking and we dare not be corrupt in our actions. And we most certainly must not simply rely on our opinions. Instead, we have the infallible and inspired word of God to guide us in these days of confusion and corruption. (See 2 Tim 3:16, 2 Peter 1:21, and Psalm 119, yes all of it!)
As we “count the days and make the days count” we must count on the word of God to lead us, feed us, control us, and conform us to the image of Jesus. Serving Him with you until He comes for us, Fred |
