Back to the basics of blogging...

Have you ever found yourself wondering about how far we as human beings have come in the last 2000 years. Or even 200 years. It blows my mind that just a week ago I was at the Wheatleys house getting ready to head to Atlanta the following day. Just the thought that a week ago I was 500 miles away spending the weekend with some old friends. Or the thought that I can get to Guatemala in just a few hours. Call it the industrial revolution, or call it modern civilization, or call it whatever you please. How about the scary thought that we have weapons that can destroy single or multiple countries. It is all a little scary actually.

I guess what is even more mind blowing than all of that is how we can't come up with answers to the littlest things. We can answer the orbit speed of Mars but we can't figure out how to move mountains. We can answer how the ozone (which we can't even see) is deteriorating but we can't explain why people get cancer. We understand how to carry hundreds of people on a machine that soars through the clouds but we can't explain why a child is taken from their family. Or why good people have it so hard while bad people have it made. We have the ability to kill thousands with the drop of a bomb but we can't explain why God would give us that ability. That is to take a life.

Why would God give us the ability to do so much but leave us so stinking dumb. We are creatures of habit (quoted from sleeping at last) and when we are taken out of our comfort zone then we don't know what to do. When in all reality that is what we are called to do. Step up. Believe!! Trust not on your own understanding...!!! I love it. We tend to think that we are invincible that nothing can stop us but we are so dumb. There are so many questions I have but I guess I will just have to wait until the day comes that I get to see my Jesus face to face. I know he will have the answers. I bet He will have to correct some of the things that I thought I had all figured out.

I love you guys. I hope that this post (and the last) were worth reading.
