Death Comes Knocking

How do you feel about the daily dosage of scandals permeating all sectors of our lives? Controversial musical giant dead, multiple corrupt or unfaithful politicians flailing around, and on-field super achieving athletes with horrific off-field denounment. Is this a reflection of what the country has become, no not some geographic nation-state, but what the citizens have become? we mirror those in the headlines though on a smaller level. We all sin like those in the headlines but we do it on a smaller scale, a smaller magnifying glass, and we are all sinful and fallen people. But there is a solution. There is hope. He who became flesh suffered temptation too. But He always sought the comfort of the Father, through prayer which protects and renews and gives us strength. Practically, what can we do? Know the difference between wisdom and folly and you will not add to the headlines.

Ecclesiastes 2:12 Then I turned my thoughts to considering wisdom, and also madness and folly. I saw that widsom is better than folly just as light is better than darkness.
