At 18 I was absolutely sure, of what at 78, I realized was the wrong interpretation of what was true.
When I think I know enough about something, I often get slapped by my own ignorance.
Knowing and doing seem always to be in conflict, in real life.
How often we are mesmerized by hope? Believing a lie until we are run over by disappointment.
Greed and love are two of the greatest driving forces in our world, greed leads to envy and love leads to happiness.
God never disappoints; the world always disappoints.
Jesus could have easily erred on the side of conservatism and condemned the woman at the well or erred on the side of liberalism and told her she was just fine as long as it made her feel good, but instead He loved a sinner into repentance.
Most folks know when they are doing wrong but won’t label what they are doing as sin, but will hasten to do so when seen in others!
Doing what you know is wrong is always sin.
A Smoky Mountain HI
Here is a journey I make each day. Time flows on this side of eternity. I have aged as gracefully as reasonable as can be be expected, and yet feel not a day older in my mind. As I begin a life in the Smoky Mountains I hope you will share my journey as well. www.kleincabin.com
