Proverbs 1:7 “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; but fools despise wisdom and instructions.”
We laugh at Bill Cosby when he says, “I brought you into this world; I can take you out.” But we have a God who brought the world itself into being. He brought the perfect garden of Eden where all was good. He brought regeneration and growth to our world. He brought the seasons of the year, life, and continual examples of the rise and fall of mankind. He knows all, sees all, feels all, experiences all through Jesus, and provides hope to continue on to all.
Atheists and other fools neither understand God’s world nor His way. They despise hope, God’s wisdom, and God’s riches. Holding these things in contempt, these fools have no understanding of His will either—unless we continue showing the results of hope until the Lord changes their hearts.
Lord, we love You today and totally respect Your understanding ways. We may not fully understand Your workings, but we respect and trust Your ways not to be our ways. We trust You, Lord, with our present dilemmas and our future Blessed Hope. Help us to show it to all Your children we meet. For Your service, we live, Amen.
