perspective

I was listening to a lecture the other day and the speaker was talking about the Protestant reformation that took place in the 1500's.

Early Protestants referred to this period as being "a time of the outbreak of truth."  Early Catholics referred to it as "a time of the outbreak of heresy."

Consider your position on a thing or on a topic.  Are you sure you see it the right way?  Is it possible that someone else, maybe even someone close to you might see the thing or topic exactly the opposite of you?

I am coming to believe that we are not as smart as we think we are.  We need to learn to trust in God more and not be so full of ourselves.  May your new year be filled with a trusting in God.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him and he shall direct your paths.
                                         Proverbs 3:5-7

Happy New Year!

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.

Love the Bible verse!
Great post. I pray that everyone (even myself) thinks before he/she speaks.
