For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.
Proverbs 2:6
I wish I had it all figured out. Well, I don’t. Some of you may think I just have all my ducks in a row, but most days I can’t even find my ducks much less get them to line up. My life is just like everyone else’s. I’m just doing the best I can do, and apparently, it takes me a long time to learn and understand things.

Several years ago, there was a series on TV called, Lost. In the first episode, a plane crashed on a deserted island in the middle of nowhere. It was chaos. Jagged, twisted parts of the plane strewn all around, some burning. Survivors were in different stages of just experiencing a traumatic event.

It’s been given to us
A book that’s passed on
Family to family
Father to Son
From the Son to the world
Though the world rejects

Beginning and end
Love and hate
Repentance of sin
Humanity argues
Vanity strong
Hating each other
Passionately wrong
Admit you’re a sinner
Strangely you’ll see
That Satan’s as clever
As clever can be
But God does not lie,
Deceive or pretend
This book has been given
To glorify Him.

Several years ago, I attended a professional development event at a nearby school district. As heads of the math and social studies departments, respectively, my best friend Darbi and I were chosen as part of the team that was sent. When we broke for lunch, Darbi knew where the restaurant was that we wanted to go to, however, I was driving so she was going to give me directions as we went. I approached a 4-way stop with many cars waiting in all directions. While we waited our turn to be first at the stop sign, I asked her which way we needed to turn. The conversation went like this: Continue reading Spiritual Dyslexia
