I don’t have anything really theological right know, but hopefully this afternoon I will when I return from text study. The texts from Ecclesiastes and Luke 12 are running around in my head creating all kinds of chaos — good chaos though (if that even makes sense). I do have a couple thoughts on them but have not formed them into "intelligent" sentences yet (if THAT even makes sense). So in the mean time I am going to leave you with these three postcards that always make me laugh. This is such a random post, but that is how I am feeling today. Enjoy and I will see you later:
(1) Indifference: It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but it doesn’t take any to just sit there with a dumb look on your face.
(2) Curiosity: There are no stupid questions, but there are a LOT of inquisitive idiots.
(3) Intelligence: Some people drink deeply from the fountain of knowledge. Others just gargle.
God bless and stay cool (it is hot and humid in SW MN).

Actually, these are pretty deep when you think about them.
actually pretty funny sound bytes, and especially like the last one!
Eric,
inquisitive idiots
Hi
I feel most times like i am an inquisitive idiot. That is why I enjoy Bible Study’s, most people are afraid to ask questions, I ask ALOT of questions and sometimes take a few jabs from others, I don’t mind but not asking what is God saying is worse than anything.
So this months concerns, Can we truly be saved and a follower of the Christ if we continue to sin the same sins again and again? Some of my more fundamentalist friends have me guessing that. As a sinner of some renown I certainly can grasp “Simul iustus et peccator”
I know how Paul felt, I do what I dont want to do.
Anyway glad to be reading your blog again
In Jesus

I think those three postcards have more redeeming value that the two cars with bumper stickers I saw on my morning walk. “My body is not a temple, it is an amusement park” was parked next to a vehicle I call the Salvationmobile. It is covered with bumper stickers telling people the end is near, get saved or burn in hell.. you get the picture. I wonder if the two owners will run into each other today. It is very hot and humid here too. Could get hotter if they meet.
Rick, sometimes I feel like I am an “inquisitive idiot” as well. But like you said, we need inquisitive idiots out there. As Paul write, “I am a fool for Christ”.
Carolyn,
I have seen the first bumper sticker before. And the sad thing is that TV and movies promote that lifestyle, hence many young people are growing up with that attitude.
